The Whisper In Darkness 6/10
Weak start, but gained momentum in the middle. Lovecraft is highly skilled in drawing you in with mysterious happenings. All is going to his usual rhythm, then suddenly our protagonist experiences an outrageous lapse in judgment and is ensnared by a poorly concocted trap. This leads to a break in the usual Lovecraft formula, which was nice (even though its execution was a little absurd).

The Dunwich Horror - 6.5/10
Fun read, full of the classic Lovecraftisms; long winding imagery of cosmic terror, sets of babbling dialogue between characters, xenophobic and racist undertones (and some loud overtones), an antiquated and distinct use of the english language, and a punchy finish with a neat twist. I can understand why this came to be one of the works that defines his writing style.
