I have been searching
for some websites about literature and for literature lovers. I cannot say that
I can take credits for the first ten ones! I have actually found them on FLAVORWIRE.
Here’s a list of 10 websites for literature lovers:
Here’s a list of 10 websites for literature lovers:
1.The Millions
Ten years is
a mighty long time in terms of Internet life, but that’s how long The Millions has been kicking out a
steady stream of reviews, essays, and links. That’s what has made it the
Internet’s #1 literary institution.
2. The Paris Review Daily
While the
print version of this highly respected literary journal only comes out a few
times a year, its blog has become a daily hub for readers thanks to a great mix
of news roundups, essays, interviews, and more.
3. Page-Turner
Obviously
being The New Yorker’s book blog comes with its perks, and Page-Turner takes
full advantage of its captive audience by posting everything from the fantastic
monthly podcast to a daily news roundup, great essays like Casey N. Cep’s “A
Murder in Deep Summer” and Jon Michaud’s piece on why Frank Herbert’s Dune
endures. Much like its parent magazine, you can’t really go wrong with what
Page-Turner publishes.
4. The Los Angeles Review of Books
Launched via
Tumblr in 2011, the LARB has grown from a proclamation that the West Coast has
a literary scene to rival New York’s into a full-fledged online literary arts
journal that boasts fantastic content and an impressive list of editors and
contributors that includes Jeffrey Eugenides, Janet Fitch, Michael Pollan,
Barbara Ehrenreich, and Greil Marcus, among others.
5. Electric Literature’s
Recommended Reading
Electric
Literature made a huge splash in the literary world upon its inception,
fashioning itself as the literary journal for the Internet era. When the
magazine ceased publication, Halimah Marcus and Benjamin Samuel stepped in with
an idea so simple, you wonder why nobody thought of it sooner: a writer, an
indie press, or an editor picks one story for you each week, and that’s it. One
great story, like Peter Orner’s “At the Fairmont,” which was selected by Ann
Beattie, or Mary Gaitskill suggesting something Saul Bellow wrote; short, easy,
and totally wonderful.
6. The Awl
It’s not a
literary site in the traditional sense, but The Awl always, always posts
something that appeals to book lovers, from great poetry to original essays
like “How To Be A Monster: Life Lessons From Lord Byron.”

7. Book Riot
The site’s
tag — “All Books. Never Boring” — is an apt summation of this sometimes-quirky
website that tries to make talking about books fun, and a little more inclusive
to non-snobs than most outlets that discuss literature.

8. The New Inquiry
In the grand
tradition of great journals from The Partisan Review to n+1, The New Inquiry
has made itself part of the bigger conversation by mixing political discussion,
pop culture dissection, and a good dose of literary sensibilities. Read the
articles, and consider becoming a member.
9. 3:AM Magazine
Another great
site that has been going strong for over a decade, 3:AM publishes everything
from original flash fiction to criticism, and might be the best place on the
net to read about modernist and postmodernist literature in the same place.
10. The Rumpus
The best of
the West, The Rumpus has a slew of great writers both editing and contributing
to a site that churns out more than its fair share of great content on a daily
basis. Plus, they’ll always be the site where many readers first encountered
Cheryl Strayed in her advice-giving guise as Dear Sugar.
