Thank you for visiting Reader Voracious and your interest in either submitting a review request or collaborating with me! As a skilled writer and marketing strategist, I am happy to discuss promotion and sponsorship opportunities that would be of interest to my audience.
I can be reached via email at hello [at] readervoracious [dot] com. Please do not send messages via my social accounts.
Review Requests
Every book that I read is guaranteed to be reviewed on Goodreads and cross-posted to retail sites, with the possibility of a blog post review.
I cannot and do not promise positive reviews. In the event that I do not enjoy a book, my review will be critical but constructive. Reading is very subjective and just because I do not enjoy a book doesn’t mean that others will not as well. I make an effort to highlight positives about the book, be clear about the reasons why I didn’t enjoy it, and to the extent possible share who may enjoy it.
No lie Kaleena is THE BEST at finding things to be positive about when reviewing books she didn't love 😂

Author Interviews
The Reader Voracious audience loves to hear about books, inspiration, and writing process directly from the author!
Each interview is tailored to the author and book specifically, and I strive to dive deeper than the typical questions asked.
Interview Examples: Rosiee Thor, Thomas Welch, Marian Womack
Book Club & Readalongs
As the owner & host of a book club through my Discord server, I am open to collaboration opportunities with publishers for readalongs and/or book club picks. Contact me via email to discuss and receive my media kit.
Readalong Example: #Sparkalong (A Spark of White Fire)
Giveaways
With a combined audience of over 5,000, Reader Voracious has a great platform to reach new users with a giveaway. Contact me to discuss.

Hi Kal! I’m the author of 19 published spec fic novels, and I’m wondering, what’s the deal with author interviews? I’d love to be interviewed on Reader Voracious! I’ve been published by Simon & Schuster, Pan Macmillan, Penguin, Scholastic, Allen & Unwin; my steampunk YA fantasy Worldshaker won the Prix Tam Tam du Livre Jeunesse in France, I’ve won 6 Aurealis Awards in Australia, and the first book in my latest fantasy trilogy has already taken out 2 US Awards. After 25 years of writer’s block, I’m on a roll!
Hi Richard, thank you for reaching out and your interest in collaboration! It’s awesome that you’ve broken through writer’s block, congrats. I am coming back from a long hiatus (2024 was rough!) and slowly getting back into the swing of things. I am definitely interested in bringing back my author interview features but will need a bit of time before I am ready for the undertaking as my next semester of grad school starts on Tuesday. Realistically, I see me being closed for interviews until May when the semester ends. I apologize for the delay but please feel free to email me at hello @ readervoracious dot com this summer if you’re still interested and we can discuss then.
I am Interested.
Hi there! If you’re interested, please send me an email to discuss. Happy holidays!
Kal, You had me at “absolutely loves reading, travel, hiking, tea, video games, and unicorns.”
First, Your first name is the 1st 3-letters of my last name.
Second, I consider myself a world explorer and I too love travel and hiking. I hiked up some mountain side in last Tahoe, I did a 101mile coast to coast over Hadrian’s Wall and lived throughout Europe and now in Asia.
Third, I lived in the UK over 2 tours in the US Air Force, making me an avid tea drinker.
I come calling to see if you would be interested in a interview? I am an author of 2 fantasy novels that are directly influenced by time in the military overseas, especially in Europe. Presently I live in South Korea on an Army base called Camp Humphreys and now work for the Red Cross overseas.
My site attached has videos and I am on Amazon…
If not now, maybe another time…. Jason
