"Her Name Was Yuki" by Richard Rivers (teen sex) 9.5, 10, 10
"Her Name Was Yuki" by Richard Rivers (r_rivers@cryogen.com). Guest review by Poison Ivan. This is the story of a shy teenage boy's obsession with Yuki, the new Japanese volleyball player in school. Well, it's actually a lot more complicated than that. It turns out Yuki's mother happens to be the school's new counselor, and Richard develops quite a crush on Mrs. Tanaka, too. The story tells the tale of Richard befriending both mother and daughter, which eventually leads to an unexpected tryst in the counselor's office. This gives poor Richard even more troubles to worry about, as his desires and insecurities run roughshod over his teenage emotions. Mrs. Tanaka and Yuki have problems of their own, and when the sleazy gym teacher Mr. Roberts makes a play for Mrs. Tanaka, Richard rushes in to save the day. Of course Richard is appropriately rewarded for his gallantry. The author does a good job making the boy's fears and jealousies real. I was once a teenage boy myself, I can easily relate to the infatuation and mixed emotions of the main character. It brought back some memories, both fond and embarrassing. Technically, it's not a perfect story, but there are very few errors for a story of this length. The plot is interesting and well told. The characters are ably described and feel real. My only substantial complaint is that this very long story has very little sex in it. If you're looking for a story to jerk off to before you go to bed, try something else. But if you want to see a sensitive portrayal of a teenage boy as he stumbles into his first sexual relationship, you could do a lot worse. Personally, I like introspective stories, so I enjoyed this one a lot. Although the sex in this story is not between people of the same age, the sexual situations are treated with care and subtlety. I doubt many people will find this story offensive. Ratings for "Her Name Was Yuki" Athena (technical quality): 9.5 Venus (plot & character): 10 Ivan (appeal to reviewer): 10 |
