Teen Confessions #33
This anthology issue contains three teenage romance stories. "Beyond My Reach" follows a young woman who pines for a boy who seems out of reach, only to devise a plan to get his attention by pretending to be interested in a movie to spark conversation, eventually leading to a romantic moment on a boat. "Shy Boy" tells of a girl who meets a shy boy and devises a scheme to get him to open up by suggesting they see a love story together, which ultimately helps him express his feelings through the film's narrative. The third story features a trapeze artist named Tina who must overcome her fears about her relationship, as she receives support and encouragement from her partner Rick as she performs her circus act.
