I agree with the one book a month idea. I only have time to read on my daily commute, so it takes me at least two weeks to read the average paperback. Plus, I wouldn't want EVERY book I read for a while to be picked by someone else.
I figure if we got together in person, we'd probably talk about the book for a half hour and quickly end up talking about everything BUT the book for the rest of the night. In a thread, it would be entirely about that book and the discussion could last until it's time to discuss the next book.
My idea right now:
Everybody has until next Friday to decide if they want to participate for the first book.
Then, the following week, we'll decide what book to read. Everyone who signs up will get to nominate a book before lunch time on Wendsday. Preferably with a link to a description on Amazon or something like that. Then, by Friday, everyone will vote and we'll decide on the book.
That will bring us to July 1st. Everybody will have 4 weeks to read the book.
July 30th will begin the discussion of the book.
