Books in Order: A Complete Guide to Sara Desai's Publications

Sara Desai has been, at various points, a lawyer, a radio DJ, a marathon runner, a historian, a bouncer, and a librarian — a résumé that helps explain why her romantic comedies feel so lived-in. The Canadian author writes from Vancouver Island, where she lives with her husband and children, and her books center Indian characters and the texture of multicultural life.

She published her first novel, The Marriage Game, in 2020 and moved fast from there: this guide covers three books published between 2020 and 2021, wrapping up with The Singles Table. It's a quick, funny, compact catalog, and reading it in order shows how confidently she arrived.
