5.0 out of 5 stars Romance with a charming touch of reality
Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2018

I was fortunate to receive an advance copy of “Elegant Freefall,” and the book did not disappoint! I found I related well to the main character, Professor Sylvia Townsend, who struggles to control every aspect of her perfectly planned life. When Sylvia learns that life doesn’t care about your internal vision board, the real fun begins. The book beautifully captures the tension between career, ambition, love, and relationships – and how sometimes they can all implode at once. “Elegant Freefall” is funny, heartwarming, and has the reader cheering for Sylvia along the way. Perfect for anyone who enjoys romance with a dash of real-life drama.

This story follows Sylvia through her life as an academic and the relationships amongst her colleagues. An intense story with lots of angst. An eye-opener to the world of academia. Worth the read. The ending was satisfying.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Characters Stay With You
Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2019

"Elegant Freefall" is a moving love story that doesn't lose sight of the complications and confusion of the real world. The characters are complex and beautifully drawn, balanced between the bliss they find in powerful relationships and the practical demands and ambitions they can't ignore. It will be an especially rewarding read for anyone involved in the current academic world, with its complicated web of politics and gossip. I'll be thinking about these characters for a long time.

I initially felt happy Silvia found romance once again after the awful break up. Unfortunately the drama that followed her career and love life caused havoc on her mind. Finally getting things right made me feel happy for her ending.

This book explores academic collaborations and exploitation of student material bundled cozily with sexual exploitation.
I particularly enjoyed the positive spin on Arkansas!

4.0 out of 5 stars Ugh academia...
Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2018
This book is about a college professor who grows up during the course of this story. I say “ugh academia” because I have found it can often be a pathological environment. There are uncontrollable egos and tenured positions for those that should have been terminated years ago. That being said, there are many, many professors who are truly wonderful teachers. I had the privilege of being taught by several while in a graduate program. It is quite clear that they love their job and are highly invested in the success of their students. As Sylvia learns in this story, it is best to learn all you can from those that truly care and disregard the asses. Great story and an excellent read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Relationships are never easy
Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2018
Elegant Freefall, a story about a woman trying to maintain control of her life, her work, and her relationships. Angelic Rodgers tackles her fourth book in a University Literature Department, and the drama doesn't disappoint. Relationships in a department are never easy as colleagues. Professor Sylvia Townsend finds that working with lovers, competitors, and friends is rewarding but also chaotic. With realistic characters and a great storyline, this romance will keep the pages turning.

4.0 out of 5 stars A spectacular mess
Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2018
By the end of this book I wasn't rooting for any of the characters in particular. I found them all quite loathsome, to be frank. But I kept reading because the messy, incestuous, intra-departmental drama was so over-the-top it was like a car wreck. And I mean that in the best possible way. Not entirely sure it fully classifies as a romance per se, but it was a lot of fun.
