Lorna Doone
“Lorna Doone” by R.D. Blackmore is a timeless tale set in the rugged landscape of 17th-century Exmoor. It follows the life of John Ridd, a farmer who finds himself entangled with the notorious Doone clan after falling for the beautiful Lorna Doone. The novel masterfully blends romance, adventure, and historical drama. I remember being captivated by the vivid descriptions and the deep emotional currents that run through the story. It’s a book that stays with you long after the final page.
