I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS VIDEO!!! PLEASE DO MORE BOOK BATTLES! I was so rooting for Frankenstein to win, one of my all-time favorites stories! So emotional!!! I haven't read all of Lovecraft's works, but THE COLOUR OUT OF SPACE should be a college text for writing atmosphere, it is incredible! If you haven't yet, you really should get to it. I think you would really enjoy it!

I need to read the colour out of space. So many people talk about how great it is. Maybe that'll be my next Lovecraft book.

I have not read the King in yellow...but I did read a bit of Lovecraft and I like the works, but you're right looking up the writer is not really good....can't deny the legacy the man has had but I hope we have a new generation of writers that delve deeper into the lovecraftian aspect of horror. Fair assessment overall!!!

Just discovered your channel yesterday and have watched 4 videos so far...really fabulous work and presentation. I was SO excited Frankenstein won! I used to teach and love the importance of this book along with the talent of the young author. Your friendly demeanor and insightful reviews are highly appreciated. We both are excited to catch up on more reviews and more book battles would be appreciated. Your movie vs book videos are quite good as well. Thank you for all your effort in turning out such great content!

Oh this is one of my favourite comments. Sometimes when I get a really nice comment I show it to my wife and this was one of them. Yes! I love Frankenstein. It's one of my favourite books of all time. I'm so glad you both like the videos. Thanks again for making my day with this comment.

@@PaperbackJourneys I am so glad the comment brought you joy! We now watch 2-3 of your videos a day and have an ever increasing list of books to tackle 😁. I realized I somehow never read ‘Salem’s Lot and started that and we have a bunch of Becky Chambers we are excited to read. A Psalm for the Wild-Built to start for me. My husband read The Long Way…Angry Planet last year and still wishes there was a follow up novel. Thanks again and Happy Reading! 📖

I have read all these novels except Turn of the Screw. In my opinion, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is the most well written book on this list, it is a tight narration. Shelly is an interesting thinker, like Lovecraft, she is also credited with writing the first Dystopian Future novel (The Last Man). She wrote many words but few to the point, her tongue his hung in the middle and runs on both ends, and other King-isms for verbosity.

Been looking forward to this since October and this didn’t disappoint. Worthy finalists and a great final choice. It’s incredible to me that Mary Shelly wrote a story with such originality that she pretty much single handedly invented two genres. And wasn’t much more than a kid (by today’s standards) when she did it.

Thanks mate! Yeah I think Frankenstein is a top 10 book for me. Maybe even top 5. You're right, it's really amazing that she was able to create such an incredible book at such a young age.

In my humble opinion, but this is probably with how big of an inspiration this book is for me, Dracula would have won my version of these battles. Followed by The King in Yellow, Frankenstein and then probably The Fall of the House of Usher. Anyways, great video as always :)

Fun video, loved Dracula but not so much The Haunting of Hill House. I know that is an unpopular decision. I hated the characters, this is a good start. I hated Frankenstein the character, and that undermined my enjoyment of the story. Perhaps it deserves a re-read in future. My perfect final would be Stoker vs Lovecraft, with Dracula coming out tops. I would recommend The Color Out Of Space and The Shadow Over Innsmouth... and I agree that Lovecraft was not a good man. Some of his work, however, is incredible.

Thanks so much Cliff! I really do need to read The Colour of Outer Space. People recommend it quite a lot. I also agree that it's okay to enjoy books and media from people who are otherwise reprehensible. It's much easier on my conscious to buy their books when they're no longer around too haha.

I bet you could do a great battle with PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR like PSYCHO -vs- AMERICAN PSYCHO -vs- MARIE and so on. What do you think? Doable?

Thanks mate! I appreciate it. I think the accent is one that people either love or hate hahaha. I live in America and I get asked DAILY if I'm from Austrailia. Sometimes people will just start telling me how beautiful Australia is and I listen until I eventually have to tell them that I've never been.
