Book Group/Reading Group - Free books, interested?

Are any of you interested in forming a group where we read the same material and discuss it?

I just got a new library card in my new city and I've been celebrating by asking folks online to recommend books. I was going to ask for book suggestions here, but then I thought it might be fun to read with other people and this popped into my head.

Buying books can be expensive and your library might not have the same books available as my library, but I'd like it to be free so anyone can enjoy the things we read together.

Project Gutenberg publishes books online for free without any login or app required. They have over 60,000 titles.

"Choose among free epub and Kindle eBooks, download them or read them online. You will find the world’s great literature here, with focus on older works for which U.S. copyright has expired. Thousands of volunteers digitized and diligently proofread the eBooks, for you to enjoy."

I'm not sure how we would interact. Video seems to be difficult to schedule for everyone so maybe I can create a blog we all log into and leave comments there?

What do you think?
