Genre: YA Christian Non-fiction
Page Count: 160
Why I read it: blog tour for publisher

Synopsis:
You want to do hard things.  But you don’t know where to start.
You are changing the world around you. 
But you are tired and burned out.

You feel called to do the extraordinary for God. 
But you feel stuck in the ordinary.
 
Do Hard Things inspired thousands of young people around the world to make the most of the teen years.  Now Alex and Brett Harris are back and ready to tackle the questions that Do Hard Things inspired: How do I get started?  What do I do when I get discouraged?  What’s the best way to inspire others?  Filled with stories and insights from Alex, Brett, and other real-life rebelutionaries, Start Here is a powerful and practical guide to doing hard things, right where you are.

Are you ready to take the next step and blast past mediocrity for the glory of God?

START HERE.


For this review, I have a guest blogger--my daughter, Kaitlyn (who is 12).
Kaitlyn's review:
I liked this book, it was a great way to grow closer to God. I think this is a good book for any teen that just wants to do something hard for God. I really liked how they had other peoples stories included in it to kind of give you an idea of what doing hard things is like. I like the points in this book. This book explained how to get started with doing something hard. It showed what you need to learn and do before you do something hard. This book is excellent  for doing in a youth group. It includes a discussion at the end to talk about in a youth group. I think the worst part in this story is there was some words I could not understand but besides that it was a good book. :)
