Your best bet is probably to post a small bit of the book in Critique Requests and then see if you can attract some beta readers who want to read more. Maybe chapter one?

Welcome! I'm happy to exchange beta reads for short stories. The best way to do this is to send me a private message.

In this way, you can hardly tell whether if u r corrected by a human after adopt their opinion on your style or imagery. Well, it is quite common that some editors would ask you to change here and there, right? In my limited experience of preparing text for publication of fiction, editors do...
