I'm trying to get into Kierkegaard, particularly his work concerning existentialism rather than his more religious writings.

Any recommendations would be much appreciated.

I'd recommend starting with The Present Age. It's fairly complicated in parts, but, as a whole, it is digestible and entertaining. It's a great introduction to his thought

You should just skip Kierkegaard and read Nietzsche instead, especially if youre going for existentialism. Kierkegaard is essentially just a wannabe Nietzsche. A "Nietzsche-lite" if you will

Thank you, both of these look quite interesting.

I've already read a decent amount of Nietzsche and while I understand the connection they may have through Existentialism, from what I know of Kierkegaard they are radically different thinkers.
