Ten Thousand Shells and Counting: A Memoir (Teenage War Survival Book 1) by Nadija Mujagic – Review by Shelly Kittell
Ten Thousand Shells and Counting: A Memoir (Book 1) by Nadija Mujagic
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a well-written and poignant memoir of a young-girl’s life in war=torn Sarajevo. It’s a first-person account of the horrors she went through. What a strong young woman. Her story of the run-In with the guys at the tanks and sitting in the basement to try to escape the bombing will sit with me forever now. This is information that is living history. I found this book to be a show of how strong people can be when needed. Being told in first-person POV makes it feel like they are telling it to you personally. A book that I would recommend to others just to get a real person’s view of their experience.
