@farmoutloud Sounds like you’re moving on to cats next since the dog quota has been met? 🐱🐱🐱 #AgBookClub

[AgBookClub @AgBookClub]

What's coming up for #AgBookClub? Fair question. After 60 books (!!!), @FarmKidBlog and @farmoutloud are taking a bit of a break. No real plan just yet, but we'll check back in sometime this spring.

Love y'all — we'll see you around!

A6: Buy farms. 😉

Jk. Buy books and craft supplies. And read those books and use those craft supplies. 📚🧶✂️ #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A4: I mean, the farm. And the opportunity for truck (and now tractor and combine) rides. #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A3: Someone who is a people person and fearless. I am neither of those. 😬 #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A2: More domesticated, but I feel the likelihood of that is higher with three girls. Bet things would’ve been different with a brother. 🫣 #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A1: Honestly? At first I thought it was going to be more agritourism based. Pumpkins plus “vintage” looking bus made me think that I guess, plus what I know about ornamental pumpkins in Illinois. #AgBookClub

@farmoutloud @StartEndLive So fancy. 💁🏼‍♀️ #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

Hi guys! Gracie, northern IL, and definitely picked up food from the Sam’s cafe on my way home from my office day. #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

@D_M_Kaminski I haven’t spent a lot of time in it yet, but I think you can search by book to find clubs who are or who have discussed it. Seems like a good way to find new communities!

Got your copy of The Growing Season? We're chatting all month long on Fable, and we'll be back for a Twitter chat on 1/24. See you over there? #AgBookClub #LinkInBio

[AgBookClub @AgBookClub]

…the perspective of a teenager today, which felt odd to me. #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A5: Maybe 2 stars? It’s not that the stories were bad, but I found it really difficult to stay focused. I really liked the story second from the end, though - I expected more like that, I guess. Felt like the other authors were trying to fit their experiences into… #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A4: Title was intriguing, so I probably would’ve picked it up on my own. Didn’t love it though. #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A2: A lot. At least on my dad’s side. But that’s something my family tracks religiously. #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A1: “Meme and Papa” (pronounced pawpaw) and “Grammy and Papa” (pronounced the way you’d expect). I already had a Grandma and Grandpa, which were our great-grandparents. #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

Hi guys! Gracie, Illinois, and whatever assortment of cookies and candy (preferably caramel-based) is immediately available and within arm’s reach. #AgBookClub

[Gracie Pierson @FarmKidBlog]

A8: Honestly, I prefer standard chapters, but I do really appreciate good storytelling. Or at least a good story line. Something I can get invested in and want to keep reading. #AgBookClub
