The Virgin River Book Series Review

We’re taking a slight detour today from fun DIY home decor tutorials, cottage home decor roundups, cottage-cool styling tips and casual outfit ideas for a fresh new topic that I just couldn’t be more excited to talk about – the Virgin River book series by Robyn Carr, which, if you’re not familiar, was just brought to life by way of a very fun Netflix show at the end of 2019. After reading all 20 books in the Virgin River series I’m breaking down everything you need to know if the TV show piqued your interest and you’re now considering a foray into the literary world of Virgin River including how the books are similar to or different from the TV show, what I loved about reading the books, whether or not you need to read all 20 in order to avoid confusion and so much more!
