If everyone read the same books it would increase the sense of community because we would all the same reference points in books to discuss.
As for whether or not people would be more or less the same afterwards is just conjecture. However, having a shared sense of community because people can discuss the same sets of ideas is how all great cultures, civilizations, and institutions are built:
- Every church known to man
- The founding of a new government
- Art movements
- Science movements
Worrying about whether or not people become more or less individual seems like a fruitless waste of time in light of the above.
