Write to us via email at hellovikingpenguin@penguinrandomhouse.com with your account handle, relevant statistics (follower count, etc.), and a little about yourself including your reading preferences. At this time, we are not accepting request/queries via DM, and ask you email us directly.

Yes! We offer both digital and physical ARCs to influencers. Please specify which format you'd prefer to receive when submitting your request. ARC stands for Advance Readers Copy. ARCs (also called galleys) are uncorrected proofs that substantially reflect the finished book but are minus proofreaders' corrections and final text revisions from the author. They are circulated to generate pre-publication buzz and are not for resale.

What are the requirements to ask for a review copy?  

You need an active Instagram or TikTok account, to live in the US, and to be 18 years-of-age or older.

We believe in prioritizing inclusivity among our reviewers. We value all forms of Diversity and Inclusion: race, ethnicity, gender identity, religion, disability, sexuality, etc. If your identity or lived experience may be relevant to a title you are requesting, and you’d like us to know, please feel free to mention when reaching out. Please note, we do not store personal information, including that regarding race, gender, or sexual orientation, after influencers have been selected for each title.

I was selected and received an Influencer Review Copy! What now?
