Depending entirely on what book is chosen, I may or may not be interested. Of course, I am more than willing to be turned onto new and exciting books, especially those that I wouldn't normally read on my own volition.

Reading new and exciting books is why I wanted to come up with this. I am not sure what mechanism to use for choosing books. I feel like it should be a mechanism where we make suggestions and then make a decision as a group so that no one feels left out. That depends on the size and you can't please everyone but I figure we can try for that and hope it works the first time. :)

The sort of books we look at shouldn't be too large, necessarily, and I think they should have some bearing on roleplaying, though that's a wide mandate with lots of wiggle room. I think it needs to be something we can sink teeth into and have a lively discussion over.

I mean, if I were going to pick books, I'd perhaps throw out some Hannah Arendt or Stanley Milgram because those are works on the underlying human psyche. But that's not to everyone's taste, even if I massively use the thinking their work inspires to inform the RP's I do.

Edit: Of course, to keep it less dry and either philosophical or psychological, I have a fallback of Hunter S. Thompson, as well as a strong belief that he should be read more.
