Book excerpt: A Mixtape of Big '80s Style, High School Angst, and a Classic Jane Austen Tale It's 1984, and after moving to Northenfield, Texas, with her family, Elyse Nebbitt faces the challenge of finding her place in a new school, one dominated by social status and Friday night football. When Elyse's effortlessly beautiful older sister, Jayne, starts dating golden boy Charlie Bingley, Elyse finds herself curious about Charlie's popular and brooding best friend, Billy Fitz. Billy's notion of "girlfriend material" and Elyse's own body insecurities eventually complicate their relationship, leaving Jayne and Elyse's exceedingly blunt friend Lottie to step in and help Elyse accept herself for who she is, jeans size and all.
