Quotes by K.M. Fajardo (?)

“But no one cared for the valley's residents in life; it only made horrible sense that they were being abandoned in death.”
― K.M. Fajardo

“Still, the age of “cracks in a dam” was long past⁠—the age of working the system, climbing the ladder, choosing lesser evils, or choosing anything at all. Systems were broken, and ladders had turned to slides long before either of us.”
― K.M. Fajardo, Local Heavens

“The Americas, for better or worse, would always match the frequency in my bones - the world I knew best even when I felt it didn't know me back.”
