14 Books Set in the 1980s, From Malibu Rising to Trust Exercise

Trust Exercise ($14, originally $27) shares the experiences of students at a highly competitive performing arts high school in the early 1980s, particularly the young love story between Sarah and David. As the events of the novel narrated by both Sarah and David unfold, it's found that their experiences and those of their classmates and beloved teacher, Mr. Kingsley, may not be as true as the reader is originally led to believe.
