What we look for in reviewers and tour hosts:
- First and foremost, we look for reliable reviewers.
- Your blog or site must be active
- As a reviewer, you agree to receive email requests to participate in book tours where you can opt in or simply ignore if not interested. In exchange for a free book or ARC (advance review copy) you will agree to post a review (or book spotlight, interview, guest post) expressing your honest opinion about the book.
- Your review will be posted on the date you are scheduled to participate for the tour you choose to host. We provide a press release with all the book's information, including the author's bio and photo.
- If you cannot post on the date scheduled, you will inform the tour coordinator to reschedule.
- Ideally, your review should be at least 150 words.
- We love reviewers who also cross-post their reviews on Amazon, Goodreads and other sites.
- We prefer family friendly sites, however if your blog contains material unsuitable for viewers under 18, please indicate this on your blog.
- We reserve the right to remove you from our reviewer list if you do not reply to our reminder emails, if you do not post your reviews without good reason or write reviews with derogatory or rude comments
- Please visit our Frequently Asked Questions for iRead Tour Hosts page for more information.
Benefits of being a tour host:
Besides getting free books delivered right to your mailbox, your blog will gain added exposure and traffic when we promote and back-link to you. Authors and publishers will also be promoting the tour on their websites and blogs. You will have the opportunity to meet authors and get to know them better through interviews and guest posts. Best of all, you'll discover books and genres you may not have read in the past. And we do love to reward our hard-working reviewers and tour hosts with incentives.

I know I'll continue to help promote great books with these book tours. I'm looking forward to more years of working together!"

"With Laura and I sharing the same name, I felt a quick connection with her. We’ve had some fun chats and I feel I’ve come to know her. The authors and books I’ve shared through the tours are fabulous and I’ve come to follow many a new author this way.Working with Laura is always a pleasure. She’s quick to respond and always happy to go the extra mile to make sure I have everything I need to present a lovely post. I’m looking forward to many more years of sharing."
- Laura @ FUONLYKNEW
"Founded by Laura Fabiani, an avid reader and reviewer herself, you will find iRead an excellent choice if you are interesting in a virtual tour with your own book. Ms Fabiani is a professional all the way through, handing every detail with precision from start to finish. I’m always impressed how well she stays on top of the busy tour schedules.Many authors have enjoyed increased success on her tours, as is evidenced by the number of return writers we see. As reviewers, we have gotten to know many new authors that we might have missed without her tours. It’s always a pleasure working with iRead."

"Not only am I a book blogger and reviewer but I have published three books of my own. iRead Book Tours was my first and only choice to tour my books because Laura understands the book market and can help you in ways you never thought of. She is quick to answer any questions you have and is on top of all the social media aspects of promoting your book. I’m glad that iRead is so successful because Laura has put her heart and a tremendous amount of energy into being the best in the book promotion business. Yah!"

"Laura is one of the most amazing individuals I have ever worked with. She is always there to answer my questions within the hour, she is super organized and her content is always flawless. She knows not only what authors and bloggers need but also what readers want and need to know about the novel. She presents this information in an easy to follow format not only for readers but for bloggers as well. She hosts a wide variety of books and I have never been disappointed with hosting a tour spot with her – from communicating about available tours, to receiving books and to receiving information about the book spot.It has been a pleasure to work with Laura and I can not wait to continue working with her in the future!"
- Carla @ Working Mommy Journal
"I am proud to say I have been taking part in iRead tours for almost 2 years. iRead Book Tours is dedicated to helping bloggers have the best resources in a timely manners so that posting during a tour is easy and enjoyable. The disclosure of what a book's rating might be and why makes this the perfect way for bloggers to not request a book that may have content that I as a reader might not want to read. I love the variety of books that iRead Book Tours offers as well as the format options in both text (physical or digital) and audio."
- Meagan @ Blooming With Books
"I have worked with iRead Book Tours for a couple years and Laura is one of the best coordinators to work with. As my TBR list gets longer and longer, I’ve gotten pickier about who I do tours wih but I always try to make room for her tours."
- Dawn @ Bound 4 Escape and Bound 2 Escape
"Whether you are an author looking for innovative ways to market your book or a book reviewer ready to connect with a great company, iRead Book Tours offers a professional and quality experience to each and every client/reviewer. I am a fan."
- Marilyn @ Olio by Marilyn
"I have come to appreciate how iRead Book Tours gives special attention to every book that tours with them; they are clearly passionate about books while not forgetting the authors behind them. That is why they go beyond plain marketing, helping instead authors get the best exposure using traditional review tours. Laura is not the only wonderful person to work with; iRead has brought together a great group of book bloggers and authors as part of her staff. And in contrast to so many other book tour services, iRead focuses on a few quality books, reaching out in a well-thought out strategic manner rather than bombarding bloggers with generic email after email. This is why, if you are an author looking for a way to market your blog, I would strongly recommend iRead Book Tours."
