5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Excuse me while I pick my jaw off the floor……I was very intrigued by the cover of the book and knowing that this is a psychological crime thriller, I decided to give it a chance….and can I say…..
Holy Wow……I did not see the twists and turns coming! This author gave me a plot that is totally mind blowing to me….I definitely will be thinking about this book for a long time.

Mitch Wegner is a smart and prestigious professor at a university. When a student. in his class dies, all eyes are turned to Mitch due to his grading system….the University did not want the attention from the press if students are taking their lives over the pressure of grades….or was the student murdered. Rumors circled around Mitch…and when rumors start circling, Mitch goes down this dark spiral….students no longer liking him, his marriage to his wife Emily on the rocks and his fellow colleague also questioning Mitch…..

What will this lead to? Is Mitch responsible for students deaths on campus or is there something more dark hiding in the corners?

This story really got me, just when I think I had it figured out….this author threw many wrenches in my thinking and had me until the end….I had not seen anything coming. I cannot wait to see what this author has in store in the future…this is a true must read!

Holy smokes. What a read! The entire time, I was convinced the main character was just a narcissistic, psychopathic, insane and twisted character, and while he was a bit of a narcissist, the freaking plot twist at the end had me reeling! I’m not really someone who reads thrillers, but this one was 100% worth it! The writing was immaculate and detailed. I couldn’t get enough of it! It’s a relatively quick read too!

The book opens with a startling chapter that immediately gets the reader’s attention. The main character is challenged when one of his students is thought to commit suicide, then another student the professor has a connection to dies. As the story continues, Mitch begins to spiral, receiving hit by hit of new issues he must try to cope with…or not… Psychological thrillers have become one of my favorite genre-reads, for sure, so I really love/appreciate how Mujagic has put together this story! When a plot is great, you don’t really have to like the main character but still feel the pull to invest your time in finishing the tale anyway. It was intense, twisted, and had me guessing till the last chapter!

This is a weird story. Not what I was expecting at all. I was looking for a psychological thriller and this just seemed to be a story of a guys life in the span of 5 weeks. It started out great but once chapter two hit I thought I was in a different story all together. This is also told in the first person and while most chapters are told by the MC a few are not and it is confusing since the chapter isn’t labeled as another character. The end arrives and all the twists and changes are told to the reader. This just seemed boring throughout and I kept wondering why I was getting this guys story especially after chapter one is so intriguing. This is a first time author for me. I give these stories a try since this genre usually entertains me. This is not a favorite but its not horrible either.

Nadija Mujagic, you are my favorite in this type of Psychology game mixed in with Thrills and mystery. I love it from the beginning to the end. Love how Mitch thought that he can control his past and buried his memories down but there is a trigger that will bring forth who one can be.
The author had me at first but then there was to think about, like my study in psychology, there is more than one point of view in every thought of a killer never estimate who the victim or the killer can be.

This is my first read from Nadija Mujagic. It will definitely not be my last either. Her writing for this story gripped me from page one and never let go. I was deeply sucked into the suspense of what was going to happen next. I read the book in a single night. The characters, the plot, and the twists keep you glued in. An absolutely wonderfully done thriller.

I’m still reeling from the conclusion of this book! I am still shaking from the unexpected plot twists. This is a fantastic riveting thriller.

At the beginning of the book you are instantly brought into the events after a mysterious murder. Then you are introduced to the cocky main character who has an extremely inflated ego. The author’s placement of the post murder intro plus the introduction to Mr Ego makes you wonder if the two events are connected. Hold on to your hats because then the story reveals additional characters, more ego, lots of drama, mysterious circumstances and more to help create a mystery unlike any mystery.

I found myself hating the main character only to feel sorry for him a bit later and changing over and over again as intriguing pieces of information are shared about his background, and his current state of mind.

If you enjoy mystery, thrillers and impeccable storytelling, this book is for you!

3.5 Stars

 

The Master of Demise by Nadija Mujagic is a bit of a dark, chilling psychological thriller with plenty of mystery, suspense, drama, intrigue, twists, secrets, obsession, revenge, violence, betrayal, murder, pain, shocking developments, and more. It isn’t my first read by this author- but is definitely my top pick out of her stories.
This proved to be a thought-provoking story, and had me following along trying to figure out what was going on. And for the most part it was gripping. But it wasn’t as dark as I had thought, and I wasn’t quite on the edge of my seat the whole way through- but it was definitely intriguing, and had some gripping, twisted moments- but maybe just a little more predictable than I had hoped for. But, still worth the read, nonetheless.
Looking forward to seeing what Ms. Mujagic does next.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Nadija Mujagic!

This was a thrilling and unpredictable ride. The writing draws you in and the plot just keeps you guessing. The characters are well developed and are multi faceted and with the mysteries stacking up I had no idea how the story will end. Intrigue, suspense, revenge and imagery- everything that lovers of psychological thrillers could want. Highly recommend.

This is my second book by Nadija, and this book is just as breathtaking and suspenseful as Ten Thousand Shells and Counting. Mitch is a highly unlikeable, egotistical character that you can’t help but hope for a change of character. I disliked him from page one, yet didn’t want the story to end to find out (1) whom murdered the student and (2) did Mitch do it?

Unlike some psychological thrillers, I appreciated the author’s attention to detail and consistent story lines, which made the story more realistic and believable. I read a lot of books, and was grateful the ending/plot was not obvious.

There are things that may be a trigger to some readers.
The Master of Demise is full of obsession, desperate choices, violence, betrayal, death and dark secrets. This dark and gripping psychological thriller hit the mark. There are characters that you will like and others not so much but that is the credit of Nadija’s work to evoke such strong emotions.
There is so many facets to our main character who once had it all. He now lives in a world where there is much darkness and danger. No one likes to take a look at themselves and realise they are not what they seem. Nothing like being knocked down a peg or two but nothing like being blamed for a murder or two.
Nadija has given us a chilling original tale with an interesting premise. There were times when I could see things coming but there are enough twists and turns the biggest being the ending. That is a surprise.
It had me looking in the darkness and shadows just to make sure no one was around. It is one of those stories to keep the most avid reader glued to the pages and the pages turning because you have to know how it ends.
If you love a dark and gripping tale of revenge and so much more, you will fall in love with Nadija Mujagic’s The Master of Demise.
I look forward to what comes next.

The Master of Demise is a gripping and fast-paced psychological crime thriller about one man’s downward spiral into a path of self-destruction. Mitch had a seemingly perfect life with a loving wife and a great career as a well-respected professor. Then his life turned upside down when one of Mitch’s students took his own life and fingers were pointed at Mitch. As he slowly starts to lose everything that he had worked so hard for Mitch begins to make a series of choices fueled by desperation and his own narcissism. As Mitch becomes driven by his own ego, he makes one bad choice after another that lead to violence and betrayal. When other deaths occur, Mitch becomes the main suspect, and he is asked to leave the university. The author did an amazing job of keeping me hooked from the first few pages and building suspense throughout. The twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat and the ending took me by surprise. The characters were well written, and Mitch was someone that I loved to hate. It was hard to tell if he was a victim of circumstance or if he was more sinister than he let on. This book had action, suspense, mystery, intrigue, drama, secrets, lies, and twists and turns that will keep you reading until the end. I highly recommend this book!

A gripping psychological crime thriller which kept me captivated throughout. At the start of the novel professor Mitch Wegner has it all, a prestigious career, a loving wife, and a reputation as a brilliant academic. It doesn’t take long for his life to spiral out of control when one of his students commits suicide and Mitch is blamed. With his job on the line and his marriage falling apart, Mitch descends into a dangerously dark world where he is haunted by his past. Mitch then makes a series of increasingly desperate choices resulting in violence and betrayal. When a second person mysteriously dies on campus, Mitch is the prime suspect, however the truth behind the killings turns out to be more twisted than anyone imagined. This novel had me on the edge of me seat and glued to my book as the drama and suspense built. Mitch is not a very likeable main character especially as he’s consumed by his own ego and dark secrets, however he is an intriguing character. The descriptive narrative brings both the setting and the characters vividly to life making me feel immersed in the storyline. The unpredictable plot along with the twists and turns kept me guessing as to the outcome of the novel. I was hooked from start to finish and was left stunned by the shocking ending!

Wow, it has been a while since I’ve disliked the main character so much. But it worked for the story so well.

This was a dark book, full of suspense and twists which kept my eyes glued to the page. There were points I wasn’t even sure if I was rooting for Mitch or hoping he’d fail and most of the time I honestly didn’t know if he was the perpetractor. The plot and characters were so well-written, I was invested to find out what would come next.

I really enjoyed this psychological thriller, and I will certainly be looking for more like this from the author.

I enjoyed reading this suspenseful story. A story that has twists and turns that you won’t see coming. A story where you are pulled into a dark, dangerous world full of revenge and obsession. A well written story where the author used details to pull you into the story. A fast paced story that is engaging and hard to put down. Mitch is a great character that adds so much to the story. He finds himself accused of a student killing themselves. As his life falls apart so does the past come to the present. This is a great thriller. I highly recommend this book.

This has to be the best psychological thriller I’ve read this year. I couldn’t put it down once I started. Was the main character the criminal or the victim? It was really hard to tell (and I’m not telling you which he was). You have to read this. It’s a story that will play games with your mind as well as his. There are twists, some you see coming and some you don’t. I found there were characters that you could love and hate. Some things weren’t as they seemed. This book is like a total mind test to test you. After finishing, I wondered if somebody was using my mind as a test (just kidding). It’s that kind of thriller. The suspense will get you. Amazing book! I love this author. She writes fantastic books that will get you to the core. An absolute must read. 5+ book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Life as a teenager is tough enough . There’s nothing kind about war . Having to deal with both at the same time can’t be easy ……

Where most teens are thinking about fashion , hanging out at the local hotspots Nadija is having to concern herself with loosing the roof over gears , stray bullets , friends that became enemies
survival , having to steal to survive but despite her dire circumstance she still manages to make you laugh at times and being humour to a tragic and traumatic time 🥲 it shows me the power of hope because without hope we have nothing …

I value and appreciate vulnerability and transparency, you know where you stand and Nadija put herself , her experiences and emotions on the line and shared her story and fir that I want to say thank you ! It’s so sad when innocents suffer at the hands of politicians and or leaders and every war has always been for that reason 🥲

I’ve just taken a deep shaky breath and said thank you again for the freedom I so often take for granted 🙏

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This memoir was a little disjointed to me, with seemingly random thoughts and words mixed in which made little sense. I felt like the author is telling this story in an oddly detached way. Maybe things were lost in translation. Despite this fragmented feeling, I found myself connecting to the author, Nadija, and her family. Going from relative normalcy to an all out war in such a short time, Nadija’s life is changed so drastically. Being so young and having to experience such horrific events would have been extremely difficult; my heart broke for the innocence left in young Nadija that was so quickly ripped away. So much death, hatred, fear, and many, many bombs. This book shows the strength of the human spirit, the devastation along with the innocence, and the toughness to endure hardships and war. Overall, a good, nonfiction read.

Nadija Mujagic’s voice is so memorable in this memoir that I felt I was right there with her during the Bosnian War in Sarajevo. I was in tears as I read the true tales of her sorrowful experience. I cannot even imagine having to grow up so fast, due to all of the horrors she had to see and live through. What a fantastic job she has done in putting her experience into her own words as if she is right here retelling me the woes of her experience. I was in awe that someone so young could live to tell her story. This is absolutely a must-read tear-jerker tale of a fantastic woman coming of age in the most unexpected circumstances who grew well beyond her years. The tragedies that she had to live through are just so heartbreaking, this is the type of story that will stay with you and leave a lasting impression. The descriptions of everything are so realistic, and the development of the characters is beautifully portrayed, you will grow attached and then have to say goodbye so many times.

I’ve read books about war. I’m a history buff, it’s my thing. But reading first hand accounts of what it was like to go through a war zone and deal with the aftermath of war always hits different.

This is an amazing book. The author is very detailed, and it’s like walking through a room of memories and watching as the author gingerly shows you pieces of her life. This is a book about resilience, strength, and overcoming some of the hardest things in life, and I highly reccomend!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Nadija Mujagic recounts her teenage years growing up in Sarajevo during the war in the 1990’s. She tells of the harrowing days and nights when the shells kept coming and hearing the next morning of her friends who became casualities of this unnecessary war. The telling of the countless times she and her family had to move, often times seperated, just to stay safe. Nadija was denied an opportunity to attend school most of this time as well.

I am roughly the same age as Nadija and this book really put some things in perspective for me. While I was enjoying life in the US, she and her family were literally fighting for theirs. I had three meals a day while she was fortunate to get a crumb at times. This book will give the reader pause at times, in which time can be spent being thankful for the opportunities that have been experienced in a different place.

It’s been quite a long time since I have had a book touch my heart the way Ten Thousand Shells and Counting has. This is a heart-wrenching, compelling memoir of Nadija Mujagic’s experience through a horrifying war in Sarajevo. The inconceivable recount from Nadija is absolutely bone-chilling as she narrates what it was like to lose her childhood home, her family members, and life on the run. I found myself taking a few moments to reflect multiple times throughout this book as sometimes it just seemed impossible to find a new normal on the other side of this horrendous war. I must say that it was also the most inspiring to read the takeaways this young woman found in the face of adversity. This gut-wrenching memoir is definitely worth your time and reflection told by such a brave soul.

Ten Thousand Shells & Counting by Nadija Mujagic is a true story recounting the experiences of a young teenage girl in Sarajevo during wartime in the 90s. I could hardly put this book down once I started reading. This story invoked so many emotions for me. My heart ached so much for all the grief and pain Nadija endured during this time while still just trying to live life as normally as possible. As time goes on, she turns to acting out and taking to adult habits as her morale struggles to shatter under the weight of these confusing and saddening times. If memoirs on war interest you at all, I highly recommend taking this journey with Nadjia.

Ten Thousand Shells and Counting: A Heart-wrenching and Riveting War Memoir (Book 1) by Nadija Mujagic is a story about the author and her family living their lives in Sarajevo as it is besieged by war.

The author takes right along with her as she retells the story of her childhood that was stolen from her by the senseless violence of war.

This one was a huge struggle for me. The story seems disjointed at times and filled with displaced random thoughts. I struggled to stay focused and did a lot of skimming as the book moved along. I could not become invested in her life as a result of this. I don’t read a ton of memoirs and maybe thats the problem with my struggle to connect. I expected a timeline and not just randomness.

I did enjoy the last line or so at the end of each chapter. They seemed thought provoking. Chapter 23 was my favorite because it was written with feeling and it evoked feelings in me. The pictures at the end were a nice addition.
