Love, Love Me Do, by Mark Haysom, has been reviewed on the We Love This Book website. “The characters in the novel are strongly drawn and……engage the emotions: the trepidation and uncertainty felt by the young boy, Baxter, is painfully apparent to the reader as is the confusion of his mother. In just a word or two, Mark Haysom seems able to evoke the pain of a deserted parent or the fear of a little boy.”
“In some respects his most powerful portrait is of Soldier, a casualty of war, still living rough in the forest, whose presence dominates much of the story. Tribute to the power of his characterisation is the disgust one feels for the main male character, Truman, who exploits and abuses everyone he meets in his efforts to live the easy life.”
