Ben is another character we hear a little bit about in Book 19 of the Virgin River series, but never meet. Book 1 in the series, The Wanderer, focuses on Coop’s arrival to the tiny town of Thunder Point on the Oregon coast in an attempt to learn more about the somewhat mysterious/perplexing circumstances surrounding the death of his buddy and owner of the town’s favorite rundown beach bar/bait shop, Ben. The Thunder Point series is comprised of 9 books that springboard off of the storyline of an interesting character we meet and learn a little bit about in Book 19 of the Virgin River series, a hunky young veteran named Hank Cooper. Ok so first things first, let’s talk nuts and bolts of this book series. As I gushed about at length in the last post, if you fell in love with the Netflix series you have 20 books in the Virgin River universe to sink your teeth into, all of which I highly recommend (you can read all about what you’ll find in that book series in that post), but if you’ve already binged the Netflix show, conquered that book series, or are just looking for another incredibly fun, funny, deliciously romantic, cleverly crafted world to escape into, the Thunder Point series by Robyn Carr is just what you need! Thunder Point Series Not only did I have so much fun chatting all things Virgin River with you guys over on The Gram since that post went up, but I’m assuming that even more of you have discovered the series on Netflix in recent weeks during your time at home, and might be looking for more where that came from. Luckily, this space is all about celebrating the casual, lived-in, loved-up, charming cottage lifestyle we’ve adored for so long, and we’re invested in that now more than ever! And it’s in that spirit that I thought it would be the perfect time to give you the skinny on yet another delightfully frivolous, endlessly fun, satisfyingly romantic, cozy-cottage-perfect book series I just wrapped up and love, and that’s actually a spinoff of the beloved Virgin River book series that I broke down at length here at the end of February that inspired the popular Netflix series of the same name. How is everyone doing out there? Hangin’ in there? As I mentioned the other day, while we’re all hunkering down at home for the foreseeable future I’ll be doing my best to tailor our content to our collective new reality, tackling topics that that are hopefully useful or inspirational or might just bring you even the smallest amount of joy during this unique moment we’re in, and not simply all of the same things we always share here that might not apply under the circumstances.
