Now, I started reading this a couple weeks ago. Being a super busy mom, spring being around the corner and my husband being out of work and bugging me CONSTANTLY to entertain him... I haven't gotten too far. However, I try to grab the book and hide when I can to get in a couple of pages.
Do you know my husband grew up in Iowa? In farm country and knew NONE of this. He admitted how familiar all of it sounded. Talking to his mom, she admits that NO ONE discusses what goes on. Its not even common knowledge outside the 'industry'. So, I found myself reading several pages to my husband last night, and amazingly he was intrigued and shocked.(Not enough interest to read it, but if they made the movie I'm sure he's watch it... but anyways....)
I am pretty sure that several of you have read it. And I thought a discussion would be nice.
I know there will be rants, and many views on many parts... but I think it is a great topic. Not only that, but to be armed with this knowledge and not use it?! What a waste of a great book.
Here I am saying great book... can you tell I really am into it?!
But I'm only 65 pages in! Yep, just started reading "The Feedlot".
And I bet I'll be up until 2 in the morning in a reading frenzy.
Point is, I have so many views my head could spin.... I can never look at corn the same, that's for sure.
