What to Say Next by Julie Buxbaum

4.0

Kit is devastated by her father's death. After he was killed in a car crash, Kit is depressed and doesn't want to talk with her friends about it. David, who is socially awkward, and on the spectrum, asks Kit about her dad.  This begins a friendship where Kit tells David her thoughts, esp. about "The Accident Project" which she started to determine how her dad died. 
Over the next few weeks, Kit and David become very close, and David works on the project. With his analytical mind, he discovers the truth - and that truth may shatter this very delicate friendship. 
This is a sweet YA book about how to talk about things and how to open yourself up to friendship. I enjoyed it.
