Book Clubs

I want to start a book club at work. I'm wondering how exactly we go about doing this - what do you DO in a book club? I've been looking around on the internet.

These are my favorite book club sites:
How to Start a Book Club
Book Club Reading List
Book Club Discussion Questions
How to Lead a Book Club Discussion
Book-Clubs-Resource
Books a Month


These are some books I'm interested in:

The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden
The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory
Prozac Nation by Elizabeth Wurtzel
The Blue Bottle Club by Penelope J. Stokes
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon
The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri

oh p.s. i think you just all agree to read a certain amount every week (so you're all on the same page), and then you discuss it when you get together, and ask questions, etc

i would probably be really terrible at book clubs because if i love a book i can't put it down and finish it in 2 days :( i can't pace myself!
