I think it's more a problem with lots of Christian books and few of the other things those people might prefer to read, which I understand can be disappointing if it seems like you're not getting anything while others are receiving a bonanza you can't benefit from.

Anyway, for official publisher promo freebies which tend to appear across multiple stores and have availability from less than a day for glitch freebies to years for permafreebies and repeat at intervals between several weeks to several years, I think they really belong in their own threads as spotlight so they can be treated as individual offerings, which they really are and people can see them easily upon checking in Deals instead of digging through a long thread which may have fallen back several pages (I had to dig to find the Horror monthly thread again to post in it) to sift them out from whatever else is being offered (and casual member chat).

(Plus, the less work I have to do with an update (e.g. typing "repeat freebie @" without having to re-copy the title/author and re-link), the more inclined I am to actually post things.)

Also, subgenres can be really different, so books may not be nearly as thematically linked as they might initially seem. Although I do batch bunches of related stuff from the same author/imprint if there's a lot of them in one day.

For ephemeral stuff like KDP Select freebies and one-day pricedrops with a limited shelf life, megathreads work better for those, IMHO.

And if people don't like my approach to posting, well, they're free to re-post whatever they like in the megathreads if they think it works best for notices, and also free to click the ignore button under my username to hide my individual threads. It's not like I post much besides publisher freebies in this forum, so they won't exactly be missing out on scintillating discussion or whatnot.
Whatever works for you is best. I remember when people complain there was too many romance freebies before we started the monthly thread. IMO there is no such thing!

I seldom visit the main Deals forum now I will have to go looksee.

Okay that's all the goodies I have found for the day.

Now it's release day and I just checked out from my Library Some Like It Hot by K.J. Larsen so I will have my nose stuck in a book after my nap. The toe is giving me fits.

How am I suppose to stay off a broken toe? It's impossible.

Remember it's REAW see the thread in the Deals forum. No too many romance authors are participating but there is a few.

Yes, the TBR pile is growing larger! Luckily, it is all bytes. Imagine how high it would be were it pbooks!

Thanks, to all. And Blossom, thanks for the recommendation. I am going to start it tonight!

Which one The Gamester? If so let me know what you think? If you like Traditional regency I think you'll like this. It's a bit of a comedy. I laughed alot reading it. I bought her entire backlist of books the other day. If someone wants to read it and missed out on it being free. I'll be happy to loan my copy. I get one loan through the Kindle Lending. You just need a U.S. Kindle account.

Today's Diesel Deal of the Day is Brass and Bone by Cynthia Gael (Carina Press) for $0.70

Quote:
Being Simon Thorne, friend and collaborator to Lady Abigail Moran, isn't easy. Yes, being a daring thief does have its charms. But I still haven't convinced Abigail that she loves me, and thievery, for all the romantical writers say of it, is not the way to wealth. Especially if Abigail insists we continuously repair the airship with our ill-gotten gains.
So when an old friend summons us to his estate and offers us a daring job with a hefty paycheck, we're happy to accept. The mission: use our airship to transport secret cargo halfway across the globe. Oh, and we mustn't forget to take along the witch and her sinister keeper. A witch more beguiling than expected and her keeper—or is that companion?—with secrets darker than one could imagine.
Alas. Perhaps I have finally bitten off more than I can chew...

On Sale!

$2.99
The Jewels of Kinfairlie Boxed Set by Claire Delacroix
(Medieval Romance)
All are previously published by Mainstream publishers.
This is an amazing deal! Kobo Link (Couponable!)

Note: When I buy a box set I use the epub split plugin in Calibre to split them to individual books. It's really easy to do! If you buy a Kindle version you can still do this! If it's a KF8 book you just use Kindle unpack plugin to extract the epub. If it's a mobi book you just convert to epub then use the plugin to split into individual books. I do this all the time.

Open Road books for $1.99 @ Amazon

These are all backlist titles. When not on sale the price is ridiculous! So I tried to buy them as they come on sale or go to Kobo and use a good coupon. The good thing about these are they are Lendable through the Kindle Lending program. Last month I asked here for someone to lend me a title and I finally got it through Lendle. So grab these while they are on sale!
