Review from Audiofile Magazine:

“Narrator Selma Ducanovic establishes a passion-filled voice for 11-year-old Amra, who grew up in Bosnia in the 1980s…Ducanovic beautifully portrays the tumultuous feelings of each of these young characters…Listeners, especially narrative nonfiction fans, will feel deeply connected to Amra in this coming-of-age memoir, which offers a window [into] the lives of those who have lived through the horrors of war and genocide.”
