Wish they had books from Gold Eagle.
You could write and ask them/tell them. It's worth a shot and they are actively trying to build a base right now (of books and readers).

I didn't find much from S&S that I hadn't already read or sampled. Lot of big names in there so I tried them years ago. I should say "find anything yet" because I doubt I browsed all of it.

I'm still not sure I'd be able to get 9 dollars worth of books a month. I read a lot of indies and this has been great for sampling them and other books. But I sample 20 for every one I read. I am probably only reading two, possibly three books per month. If they are both indies in a given month, it's cheaper to buy them.

I was able to start the DailyCheapReads book club selection because of Scribd. It was a typical 7 dollar book from a trad and I wouldn't have bothered with it had it not been on Scribd. It was a DNF for me, but at least I can opine when the book discussion starts.
