Through it all, Nadija witnessed the human spirit endure, even as ten thousand shells and more rained down upon the city. Ten Thousand Shells and Counting is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity.Highlights by BookLife Prize:Mujagic's prose is descriptive, polished, and features well-integrated historical and political details without ever becoming dry. Memoirs relating to experiences during war are familiar, but few focus on the conflicts impacting Sarajevo, Bosnia, and Herzegovina, and few with such a wealth of engaging detail. The author excels at personalizing the experience of one's home being under siege through vivid, in-scene descriptions, while also clearly conveying the particular circumstances of the Bosnian war. Mujagic's framing of her story through the lens of PTSD, allows for greater resonance and relatability."A book millennials must read." Amazon Book Review
