Mr Plezier

by Vi Keeland, Penelope Ward

Lola is met haar vriendinnen op vakantie. Ze krijgt van hen op haar dak dat ze veel te hard werkt en te weinig plezier maakt, en ze zeggen dat Lola wat spontaner zou moeten zijn. Wanneer Lola vervolgens in een café een telefoonnummer op de muur geschreven ziet, met eronder de woorden ‘zin in een pleziertje?’, besluit ze eens iets totaal onverwachts te doen. Ze belt het nummer op. Een man met een wel heel aantrekkelijke stem neemt op, en ze raken in gesprek. Maar wie is deze Mr Plezier eigenlijk echt?

[The Avid Reader · Rating 4 out of 5]

I am not going to say much about this novella except that it was freaking perfect and I wish it were a full-length book. Like is that too much to ask for?

Please make this into a full-length book. Please. Please. Please.


Let me just enlist all the reasons this novella should be a full-length book.
A) The chemistry between the hero and heroine was spot on. They were everything I look for in a relationship.
B) It was such a cute and fun read. There was not a moment of reading when I felt bored.
C) It was so funny that I had a huge, permanent grin plastered on a face the whole time I was reading.

I mainly picked this book because I wanted a light-hearted romance in between my dark romance binge read and I am so glad I read this book. Next time I'll be in a reading slump, I'll simply re-read this one.

Después de mucho tiempo al fin uno de sus libros me estaba gustando y era todo lo que yo esperaba de un protagonista de Vi peeero es demasiado corto cuando se pone bueno se termina.

Yo necesito un libro como éste en versión completa.

Me gusto este primer relato. Es lindo y ocurrente, ademas la pareja formada por Lola y Silas me parecio muy refrescante.

Muy aconsejable si quieres leer un romance de verano.

2.75 Estrellas!

3.5 ⭐'s

“Lola + Silas”

This little novella sounded really good about Lola is renting a house by the lake with her friends for the summer and Silas, the man she gets to know after finding his number on the bathroom stall.

Silas and Lola hit it off right away and they're always calling each other. When they finally meet in person, they both have some secrets. Lola's a bit of a nerd and it comes out in the most awkward ways. Silas, on the other hand, comes off as a bit too forward.

Unfortunately, the story is very short so we never get to know much more about Silas. I did like how things worked out...I just wish it was much longer because just as it was getting good, it ended.

Geluisterd tijdens het nagels lakken en het laatste stukje digitaal gelezen. Wat een heerlijk en hilarisch kort verhaal.

[Christy Bailey · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ok so that was the cutest short story ever. I'm actually really upset it was a short story and not a full length read. It was an amazing concept and I just want more!!! I need to know what happens or should I say I want to know. Do they stay together or is it just for the summer? Ugh this was just what I needed!

3.5 stars I was really liking the story but it just ended when it was getting good

[Annie's reading corner · Rating 3 out of 5]

This story has a unique plot. I enjoyed the whole thing of calling a stranger and start from there.
A good read to spend some free time.

Voorspelbaar met een plottwist, heel leuk

[daniela sofia · Rating 3 out of 5]

Soube-me a pouco, preferia que fosse um livro bem longo. Não deixou de ser bom, mas um livro todo com esta história facilmente se tornaria um favorito.

Leuk vermakelijk boek voor tussendoor.

[Melanie Milburn · Rating 5 out of 5]

Short, funny and sassy, this drunk dial pick up turns into something more. Lola is spending the summer with her two best friends on Fire Island. Having had a bit of a dry spell after being in a bad relationship for five years, including the last month or so of the relationship, her friends convince her go for fun during their stay. After a bit too much to drink she ends up calling a number “advertising” a good time. She gets more than she expected.

[Maria (semi hiatus) · Rating 3 out of 5]

Short and funny to pass half an hour. No sex scenes, clean “romance”. Should’ve been better as a full novel where an actual romance could be developed. But this novella is part of the Summer Fling anthology and for a summer fling this one is spot on.

[Its_nootjee · Rating 3 out of 5]

Ik ga niet veel over deze novelle zeggen, alleen dat ik denk dat je hem echt moet lezen
Ik heb dit boek met veel plezier gelezen, het was echt goed
maar het is echt te veel gevraagd om er daadwerkelijk een boek van te maken, ik heb hier een heel boek van nodig, ik vind het geweldig

[Kate R · Rating 5 out of 5]

super clever spin from "for a good time call" messages in bathrooms. Really enjoyed this one! Loved both characters. definitely left me wanting more

This needs to be full length story!!!

Okay. Let's talk. Why? Why oh why?
My heart's crying for this novella. Please make this into a full-length book. I beg you. :(

[Ptiteaurel · Rating 5 out of 5]

Une première nouvelle qui m'a collé le sourire aux lèvres car c'est une lecture parfaite pour l'été. Lola Lancaster est une jeune femme de 24 ans qui va faire un pacte avec ses amies pour oublier sa déception amoureuse. Elle a besoin de lâcher prise et le hasard va prendre un malin plaisir à se moquer d'elle. On sent les choses arriver dès le début mais le comique de situation nous fera passer un bon moment avec notre héroïne mais aussi avec Silas qui ne manquera pas de charme et de répondant
