What are some good books for starting book clubs?

There are 6 members of the group. 2 are in their late 20's, one is 16, another is 33, and me and my frined are both 17. So as you can see there is a very different age range between us all. We are willing to buy all the same book, no matter if it's paperback or hard cover. We plan to meet every other week. We are just interested in reading the book together, but we do hope to get into some in-depth discussion about it also. Were looking for a good book for starting book groups(clubs). Genres we like are science fiction, action/adventure, westerns, and war/military.What are some good books for starting book clubs?
I think Pride and Predijuce is a GREAT place to start!
I second the recommendation for Ender's Game (Orson Scott Card), and also suggest that Ender's Shadow be read right afterwards. It's a parallel story to Ender's game but from the view point of a different character. The spin on the story really makes you analyze things. The comparison provokes a lot of thought. I think the discussion you could get out of this story, (even without adding Ender's Shadow in there too), would be pretty insanely good.

They are fantastic science fiction reads. My mother and I both really enjoyed reading these books and discussing them afterwards =)What are some good books for starting book clubs?
I'm also a Louis L'Amour fan. My two favorites are "Last Of The Breed" and "Passin' Through". A great war novel is "The Killer Angels" by Michael Shaara. His son, Jeff, wrote a number of good war novels too. Our book discussion group had its biggest turnout for "The DaVinci Code".
"The Long Walk," Slavomir Rawicz.



"Inside the Aquarium," Viktor Suvorov.



"Red Cocaine," Dr. Joseph Douglass.



"Stranger in a Strange Land," Robert Heinlein.



"Slaughterhouse-Five," Kurt Vonnegut.



"Stay Alive, My Son," Pin Yathay.What are some good books for starting book clubs?
Enders Game is one of the best books of Ive ever Read comes with a few books that cover the same story but in the view of diffrent characters its worth reading.
His Dark Materials would be great!!!
Hey Book Club Starters!

Did you find good books yet? I can suggest some classics (because in classics you really don't have an age limit). In science fiction I would start out with Orson Scott Card's "Ender's Game". It is great to read and has tons to talk about: ethics, children, exploitation, control, etc. Some of the best adventure novels were written by Louis L'Amour, start with "The Lonesome Gods" or "The Walking Drum", again lots to discuss about at the end. The very first western ever written is "The Virginian" by Owen Wister...awe-inspiring and beautifully written, even people who hate westerns like this one. I don't know any military books.
