Quotes by Mary Anne Mohanraj (?)

“The streets were more empty than usual—everyone who had someone was probably at home, cuddling them up, waiting for the bombs to fall or the shooting to start or the diseases to spread or just for the chips in their heads to catch viruses, melt, and drip out of their brains.”
― Mary Anne Mohanraj, The Stars Change
