This is a story I read you don't have too lol. I would be worried he would haunt me from his grave, but he did not like most of his works either haha. Three stars.

Little break from spooky for politics but is it really a break? You have been warned. It's not bad lol. This is a solid read and like 1984 something we all should read at least one time, IMHO.

Maybe, but that should have been picked up in peer review., one hopes lol. Still, I did not look at the study itself. My opinion is that those folks mostly lack attention span and watch too much screen lol. The is something to be learned from new POVS which fiction often provides.

This story 100 years old this month. Amazing! I hope anything I write is read by someone 100 years later. Even if it's just on a bathroom stall haha. 4 stars, and easy read for Lovecraft.

Yes, the book has some issues but well worth the read. If you did not know the movies as based on it, now you do. Four star read. Plus, I know I am guilty of some of this too lol.
