Literary Hub is a daily literary website that launched in 2015[1] by Grove Atlantic president and publisher Morgan Entrekin, American Society of Magazine Editors Hall of Fame editor Terry McDonell, and Electric Literature founder Andy Hunter.

Focused on literary fiction and nonfiction, Literary Hub publishes personal and critical essays, interviews, and book excerpts from over 100 partners,[2] including independent presses (New Directions Publishing, Graywolf Press), large publishers (Simon & Schuster, Alfred A. Knopf), bookstores (Book People, Politics and Prose), non-profits (PEN America), and literary magazines (The Paris Review, n+1). The mission of Literary Hub is to be the “site readers can rely on for smart, engaged, entertaining writing about all things books.”[3] The website has been featured in The Washington Post,[4] The Guardian,[5] and Poets & Writers[6]

In June 2016, Literary Hub launched Book Marks,[7] a new site to showcase literary criticism from over 70 publications.[8]
