(2) YA Two alienated teens meet in the high-school cafeteria: David likes numbers and routines, takes things literally, and has trouble reading people in social situations; Kit's father died in a car accident a month before, and she can no longer stand her friends' inane conversation. Buxbaum's empathy for her protagonists and careful, stereotype-resisting characterizations make David and Kit's eventual romance feel natural.
