Learning to Fall Addison Hill Book 3 eBook Mina V Esguerra Clarise Tan The Passionate Proofreader
A couple of months ago I declared that Playing Autumn was my favorite MVE book, but what do you know...I'm about to eat my words. Learning to Fall is just amazing and so good that I'm having a hard time trying to be coherent without the feels getting in the way.Most of the people who read the first Addison Hill book (The Harder We Fall/Falling Hard) took notice of Grayson, and for good reason. I knew he had something special going on and I'm so glad Mina followed through. The premise of the story was already a familiar trope: pretend relationships and the perils of falling for the other person. However, the additional details to the plot was a refreshing thing to read, specifically Steph and Grayson's personalities and the circumstances surrounding them.
Mina's growth from her chick lit books to the edgier and mature New Adult genre was evident in Learning to Fall. Steph and Grayson were solid characters in the sense that she embodied a lot of people's insecurities and hangups under a tough and carefree exterior, while he tries to be somebody for everybody.
Oh, and did I say that Grayson's a dreamboat? I mean, more than the abs and the smooth moves (coining their couple name was adorbs), he was the epitome of an ideal book boyfriend. It's tough to explain in detail what that means, but that's what the book is there for, right? And Steph...wow. I felt like I was living vicariously through her. I liked her own brand of spunk. Sure, she had issues, but her chinks made her human and relatable, and her sporadic whining about her life didn't strike me as overbearing.
One thing I loved about the story was their struggle from a relationship of convenience to something real. The way Mina raised the stakes in this transition was particularly spot on. I've always wanted a MVE book that pushed characters to their limit, and this was it. I was reading this particular scene where Steph was having an online chat with one of her bookish friends about her predicament and I was all over the place trying to contain my feels.
If there was one thing that held me back from giving this a 5-star review, it would have to be the abrupt steamy scene that came from nowhere. I know it's totally unlike me to pick on a sex scene but it felt too sudden that I was wondering if I skipped on any parts.
All in all, I'd recommend Learning to Fall for the feels, steam, and a whole lot more, especially if you've already read The Harder We Fall/Falling Hard. Team Stayson doesn't disappoint.
Now excuse me while I go collect my feels on the floor.

Learning to Fall Addison Hill Book 3 eBook Mina V Esguerra Clarise Tan The Passionate Proofreader Reviews
Another nice read from our writing mentor, Mina Esguerra! It tells the story of art student and book blogger Steph, who is participating in a "Live Like Fiction" monthly blog challenge. During one of her art classes, she found a willing accomplice in hot rugby player Grayson... I just love the pacing of the story. I love how Steph and Grayson's relationship progressed from being acquaintances to two people enjoying each other's company. The blog challenge provided a venue for the two of them to spend time with each other and get to know one another. Both characters also have internal issues that they have been working on, especially Steph, and I love how she slowly figured out what she really wanted to do. Her struggles as an artist were relatable, and her thoughts were spot on. I also love that this story didn't need too much romantic drama to bring out a conflict that would shake the foundation of their journey. I had an amazing reading experience.
Learning to Fall is the third book of the Addison Hill series where I got to know about my new bff, Steph Bennett. (Eeee. She’s a book blogger! Well not that kind of a book blogger because she’s more focused on the artsy side of things since she’s also an art student.) She was stuck in a lot of things thus forcing herself to make adult choices (AKA setting her priorities straight). Or else good bye education. That said, she had to set aside her book blogging duties for a little while. But that didn’t mean she’d be as in gone in the blogosphere. Nope, not at all. We’ve got Sera’s Live Like Fiction blogging challenge to thank for that. Because of that, I got to meet a very naked (heh, I wish) Grayson Price, Addison Hill’s rugby club former co-captain.
Mina had me at book blogging and challenges. And just enough of everything. I was captivated just from the first few pages alone because Steph was an interesting character. I loved that she loved books and that she spent time to read and review them to incorporate her artistic side to it. I also liked how easily relatable her character was. I mean, college, choosing what you think is best for you, honoring your parents, getting laid, falling in love, typical challenges of a girl her age. Her struggles were also very believable and totally NA. (Good job on that, Mina.) It helped that she’s best friends with Daria and Victoria’s sister because I got to know her thoughts about the girls… and their boyfriends. Haha! The same thing goes for Grayson because I liked how he handled things and Steph. Like how he was really a good guy for taking a firm stand to be one before the meet and greet with Steph’s parents. I liked how sure he was of things and how freaking hot he was in bed. And not just in bed. (Congrats, Grayson, you’ve just been selected to join other men in my book boyfriends roster.)
Overall, I really, really enjoyed this book not only because Mina stepped up the steam level (O.M.F.G prepare to fan yourselves) on this one and that you have something to do by the end of the book, but also because she excellently executed the NA feel to it without the usual insta-everything. If anything, I loved how Grayson and Steph got to know each other first by spending time together (Grayson wanting to know how Steph lives her life, Steph knowing Grayson’s co-captain/businessman/artist life) and from there, they just knew what to do with each other’s worlds. They didn’t just fall. They learned how to fall. (And consciously at that.)
