I realize this thread is a little old but I just rran across it and wanted to respond.
It's pretty easy to set up voice control to change pages. So, when I say "next page", the page turns. This can be done with built in iPad features.
I have to say that speaking is almost as annoying as turning the page by hand but some might find it useful.
Here are some notes I took at the time I set this up. Not exactly well designed instructions but probably useful. I use this primarily on the iPad Kindle app but since it just executes a "Swipe Left" (or right) it should work with any reading app.

The notes:
First step is to set up voice control. As soon as voice control turned on, the iPad should understand “swipe left” or other built in gestures. There will likely be a bunch of extra stuff displayed like numbers for every screen object. Turn off most of the voice control options

To get “next page” to work, add a custom command that you specify and have this apply the swipe left gesture.

This will, by default, work everywhere once voice control is on. As I don’t want this on for every app, I added some shortcut code to turn voice control on/off when the kindle app starts/stops.
