Lorna Doone Audiobook

" It was amusing, but unfortunately, I couldn't keep reading. It just got boring after awhile. I barely made it through Volume I of the three volumes that make up the book. "

" This book was really okay....good enough I kept reading, but not a gripping classic like others I have read. "

" It's a long book, but it is good. Okay, I finally made it through. This book has a little of everything... love, intrigue, family values, murder... it's a classic, and is worth the effort to read it. I will now have to see the movie. :) "

" I read the 1967 edition, can't find it in the listings. "

" I love Victorian lit but I could not get into this book at all. I have read a vast variety of this time period and know and understand the style, but this book just didn't do it for me. I was really disappointed after the good reviews I read. "

" I read the abridged version in fourth or fifth grade and loved it. After wading through the first seven chapters of the unabridged edition, I've decided that this book is better abridged. "

" It is a wonderfully written book and has every thing needed in a good book the main character John Ridd is troubled from the start to the end but it ends like all fairy tales with a happy ever arfter "

" You will have more fun watching paint dry. Magnolia paint at that. "

" One of my all-time favorites. I read it as a boy, fell in love with Lorna, and have been looking for her ever since. Not really; I'm happily married. Great boy's book and not a bad adult read. In fact, I am amazed that I was ever able to read it those many years ago. "

" the story is long but I really enjoyed the detail and the old english history. I am a sucker for a good romance with some good old fighting of good vs. evil. Fun summer read. "

" It was a good book but very long. It kind of took a while to get into but I liked it overall "

" Possibly the most exciting novel I have ever read. Palpitation-inducing. "

" I'm not sure why this book isn't more widely read today. I often forgot I was reading a novel- it seemed like I truly had discovered the memoirs of the main character. "

" No, not the cookie, the book. This is a romance, and the book from which Harlequin Romances sprung. This however is well written, and carries you along from adventure to adventure, all with the backdrop of the late 1600's in England. "

" Retold by Joan Collins "

" Inscribed: Presented to Pearl Shook by the W. C. T. U. (Women's Christian Temperance Union) Sherwood, O. Sept. 16th, 1894[return][return]Surely, with all the drinking and carousing in the book, an odd choice for a prize given by the WCTU!! "

" The imagery is amazing in the book! "

" I like this book more than I can say, and if pressed, I don't think I could say exactly why. I think the band of evil gypsys plays a big part in my enjoyment of it. "

" Initially I found it hard to get into, the language can be a bit daunting at times. However once I did get into it, I couldn't put it down. Basically the story of a forbidden undying love. Very dramatic ending, love it! "

" Although interesting as a read I really really did not like the main characters and was dissatisfied with the story as a whole. Unexpectedly so. "

" Overall good. But in these times, I think the chivalry, the romance seemed a bit suffocating. "

" I loved this book in 8th grade. It was SOOOOOOO romantic.I read it three times in a row, still remember the whole story. next chapter of the romance novels was the Scarlet Pimpernel, over and over again. "

" simply wonderful and captivating "
