Classics are the only books I would even consider for a group discussion, because at least I can feel a sense of accomplishment that I got through some well-known doorstopper.
IMHO, there need not be any such restrictions. You nominate a book you want to read and others will decide to vote or not and if a book wins that you will not be reading, then you don't have to read for that month. That's what I would like to see.
