I'd be interested in participating in this depending on the book. My interest would be Tarot non-fiction books. I'm part of a very successful book club on another forum that is run a little differently. Everyone is reading something different, of their own choosing and they post through the week about what they like or don't like, other things the author has done and so forth.
It's probably too chatty for what you have in mind, Shade, but it's been going for years now so the form is obviously a feasible one. I think what keeps it going is that it has a definite 'leader', someone who starts the new thread each week, compiles resources and draws us all in with various questions, mini-themes and the like. The leader has been the same person for several years. She enjoys this and puts time and effort into it.
This format might be too formal for what you want but some structure with a check-point person in place would probably go a ways towards keeping the thread afloat.
