Goodreads
www.goodreads.com/
www.g
Goodreads is more about book "discovery", so to speak, and provides information about a multitude of books from every genre. It includes ratings and simple summaries (kept purposefully vague). You'll have to become a free member to add things to your online browsing list, but visitors can view the information just as well - short reviews, ratings. The site is unbiased, and contains books about some rather controversial topics - it does require a rather mature attitude towards the wider community. :) Goodreads is a well-known book browsing sites, and I recommend it for any readers stuck in a block as to what to read! Its extremely user friendly, with a large search-engine, the spacing is clear, the tags are brilliant - definitely a great site :)

Poetry Foundation

www.p
Poetry Foundation is a website dedicated to poem browsing, information sharing (about poems), and is a great resource for poem/poet fans to look at different styles of writing! It also promotes a poetry magazine for dedicated writers/admirers to take a look at, so I recommend it for all enthusiasts out there, who want to know more, see more, and read more!

FictionPress

Fictionpress is a site for authors to publish their works, and receive reviews from readers. However it doesn't provide other services, such as connections to publishing websties/people/agents. Its a great place to read other people's work, and share imagination!

Writers Cafe
www.writerscafe.org/
www.w
Writers Cafe is a online community where writers can post their works (such as novels, poems etc.) and get reviewed by others, as well as befriend some other fellow writers. As well as allowing the author to post works under their own name, it links the community to publishers, literary agents, and literary magazines, giving them the chance to actually get published. It also introduces writing contests to the authors - and gives them something to write to/for, which is a brilliant way to interact with the community of writers!

All Poetry

allpo
This is a publishing/writing site for budding poets to share their works, and receive critique (and commendations) from fellow peers! It is similar to Writers Cafe in a sense that it provides (motivational) contests as well as social forums for people to interact. This is a great site to publish your work in! :)
