Ten Thousand Shells and Counting: A Memoir (Teenage War Survival Book 1) by Nadija Mujagic. This is such a moving Memoir of a young girl living in Sarajevo during its 1990s war. Living as a teenager in this war torn Country causes her to grow up much differently than other teens. She is thrown into the Country’s political differences and how the war cause neighbors to go against neighbors. Her family eventually has to flee her home and find shelter across town. She shares how her family and herself went without food and clothing for a long time and the struggle of trying to find food. We in American take so much for granted never having to go thru turmoil like this. She also shares how she did normal teen things too like sneaking cigarettes and staying out to late. This is a very sad but moving story that I think we all should read to realize how good we have it here!
