Hello! I’m looking for a new series similar to Jack Reacher. I like the lone wolf, tough guy aspect, as well as the fact that like me, Jack Reacher loves himself a good cup of coffee. I know this is a weird request, but are there any series like Reacher, with a hero/heroine/main character that loves coffee like Reacher does? I also enjoy that Reacher is a drifter, and goes to small towns and solves mysteries, and helps people.
And while I realize that Twin Peaks doesn’t technically qualify, I believe there’s three or more books canonical to the series.
The Expanse comes to mind. Holden (one of the main protagonists) has a series-long trope of being a MASSIVE coffee enthusiast, which is interesting for a series set largely in zero-G
Seriously, I thought this was going to be a joke post about the Expanse!
Holden and Janeway were my first thoughts.
Janeway replicates her coffee.
Holden would never stand for that philistine bullshit.
sometimes it’s made out of whatever Neelix can find though.
What an odd question.
Did you know that you can just add that a fictional character loves coffee to your head cannon, even if coffee is never mentioned once in the text? Nobody can stop you, and no one will know because it’s all fiction in your head.
Maybe they enjoy reading about character enjoying things that they themselves enjoy.
Its not too hard to understand that.

Not the coffee thing but John Le Carre has a great series of books that are kind of the spy version of Reacher’s army persona.
This person asked especially for the coffee thing though.
Why do you response with something that has nothing to with the coffee thing?
Why? Cos it’s an open chat board and I can say whatever pops into my mind. Why do you have such a bee in your bonnet about my answer?
I was just curious if there is a reason behind it besides brainfart drive-by.
I see it often that a specific question is posed with a clear direction and people completely ignore the premise. The post gets filled with the same 7 answers over and over which all are missing the point or propose something that was explicitly stated in the op as already tried or excluded in another way.
Reads to me often as: “Nice post but why isn’t it about me and what I find interesting?”
Read past the title and you’ll see OP listed other qualities they like in Reacher. It’s not hard to imagine that they might appreciate a good suggestion based on those.
I’ve read past the title and coffee was specified 2 more times.
It seems to be a question about some very niche and narrow topic so I would like to know why that is completely ignored.
