Summer Book?

So here's an idea: since we seem to be struggling to find topics that capture our collective attention, and given the fact that academic semesters are drawing to a close in the next couple of weeks, is anyone interested in selecting a book of general interest (theology, ethics, politics, etc.) that we can read together and discuss this summer? We could agree to read a couple of chapers a week (or whatever seems feasible), and post responses, questions, observations--all that good stuff. Even if only a few of us do it, it might be a nice way to transition us from a current events/anything that strikes our fancy format (which seems to be struggling) to one that is more organized and content- and discussion-rich. Clearly, I'm in. Any other takers? If so, what books do you suggest?

Did you have any books in mind, Andy? I mean, obviously you had some books in mind or the possibility wouldn't have presented itself to you. Spill the beans.

I might be interested in this if I can afford such luxuries as "books" this summer.
