I've tried several times in my life to like Lovecraft. I never got that far in the reading, his stories were somewhat inaccessible to me. Last year, on a whim, I downloaded several audio books of his stories. I ended up devouring them. I got more, ran through those and couldn't get enough of him. Suddenly, I got it. I still don't necessarily enjoy reading Lovecraft, but a good audio reading of his stories is hard to beat. I'd reccomend anyone 'struggling' with Lovecraft to try a couple of the many available free audiobooks available online and see if that changes your mind about him.
And like a lot of other folks said, Mountains totally rocks. I'd definitely reccomend that one.
