As a long-time Third Day fan, I couldn't resist taking a peak into Mark Lee's new book Hurt Road. As a reader, I was pleased to find that this is a book that can be appreciated regardless of your musical tastes.
Mark Lee may be Third Day's guitarist but with Hurt Road he also proves himself to be a gifted storyteller. Mark has that special ability to share life and lessons by weaving them into the retelling of past events, not shying away from the painful or the struggle but recognizing the value within those moments.
Mark's writing style felt very laid back and conversational making the book an easy read technically. However, he did not hold back from conveying emotions that could be more difficult to share as he walked through his time recovering from a vehicle accident and his father's death in high school.
For those who are fans of Third Day, there is the extra treat of backstage insight into the band's earliest days as Nuclear Hoedown and the slow journey of God's transforming work in the band and in Mark's own life.
4 out of 5 stars
