Adam Silvera
“si hubiéramos tenido mas tiempo me hubiera enamorado de ti”
Adam Silvera, They Both Die at the End

B.L. Brunnemer
“The dead still come to me every now and then. But the lulls between are getting smaller. They are finding me somehow. I tell them why they can’t move on. I listen to their lives and talk to them if they need it. I still draw their portraits in my sketchbook, with their stories. I put Mary Summer in there too. Someone should remember.”
B.L. Brunnemer, Trying to Live With the Dead
