I have been thinking about this and decided that we are damned if we do and damned if we don't. Yes, there are people who don't understand and send emails. However, there are also people like you who want use the send to google books, will be unhappy that it is gone, and send emails. To avoid this conundrum I added a new "Upload to Google Books" menu item in Book Details (in the app menu, not on the action bar) that does exactly what it says. If Books is not installed then the menu line goes away.
While I was there I also dealt with another not-so-frequent request, to be able to send books to other apps such as cloud storage or email. I added a second menu line "Send book to app" that when clicked offers you a choice of all the apps on your device that think they can do something interesting with the book other than "view" it. I tested it with gmail and dropbox and both did what I expected. Oddly enough, Google Books is not an app that presents itself as a choice, which is why it has a menu line of its own.
Given the number of bugs fixed and the above new functionality, I will make another prerelease later this afternoon. I want to wait until after people in the US have had time to wake up and tell me I am full of it.
