Oh, Lovecraft Would HATE That!
My favorite brand of Lovecraftian fiction is the kind that would have the man rolling in his grave.

This is what niche lists should be for! Amazing!
I got inspired by the "bring what you know to the table" post the other day, and well... đ
Recommendations are welcome! I'm always looking for more books in this particularly niche vein. And I promise to add any more I find, as well. đ„°
Providence Girls by Morgan Dante would be a good fit for this list!
Omg, that one looks AMAZING!!! Sapphic, and a Lavinia Whateley story???
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! đ„°
OH this list is so fun!!! i wholeheartedly believe wtnv would be lethal to Lovecraftđââïž
Night Vale is like the anti-Lovecraft - all the cosmic horror without the hatred and bigotry! đ„°
Have you read The City We Became duology by N. K. Jemisin? I have described it as a love letter to New York City and hate mail to H. P. Lovecraft.
I haven't read it yet, but I've got it on my shelf! Your description is amazing. đ

Hard co-sign, I love everything about this list. đđ«Ąđ©”
I cackled reading Winter Tide for the first time. A Jewish woman who is also a Deep One, trying to reconcile her faiths while working to save America? đđ„đ„
Korean women are really doing amazing things with lovecraftian horror! I highly recommend A Plagued Sea by Kim Bo-young and the Lovecraft Reanimated collection (#1 Alien Gods by Lee Suhyeon, #2 Come Down to a lower Place by Yi Seoyoung, #3 The Call of the Friend by Jaehoon Choi).
Omg, those are going on my TBR immediately! đ Thank you for the wonderful recommendations.
I hope you enjoy them! đ„°
