The best book clubs I've been in are ones where the members had to pay something to be in it. I think everything should be done to get the people who sign up to actually show up and participate, and part of that equation is usually charging everyone a little bit, especially if the people in the group aren't already friends.

Those people would also organize and run the club. This is just a site to connect people together. That's the easy part.

I've seen much the same filtering/curation effect achieved by charging any amount, not just absurdly high amounts.
