Turning over a new leaf!
I voted for The Hobbit because of the experience I made with the LotR discussion. Very few members have continued discussing the chapters by now, so that I think a shorter work would have a better chance of getting widespread and hopefully lasting participation. I also think TH would get a bigger audience, as younger members might be more inclined to post there than on a book about which they don't feel as knowledgeable.
The whole idea is to get as many people as possible involved, and I think that could more likely be achieved with a discussion of The Hobbit.
