Reading Volumes 1, 2, and 3 in one year. This will repeat yearly until communism is achieved. (Volume IV, often published under the title Theories of Surplus Value, will not be included, but comrades are welcome to set up other bookclubs.) This works out to about 6½ pages a day for a year, 46 pages a week.
-
I'll post the readings at the start of each week and @mention anybody interested. Discuss the week's reading in the comments.
-
Use any translation/edition you like.

Read Synopsis of Capital. Engels wrote this as a study guide/summary for Capital. He didn't complete it and the latter parts of the synopsis are incredibly half-assed to the point of him using phrases instead of sentences, but the beginning parts, the parts that almost everyone struggles with, are complete.
