“A time-loop story centering on Bollywood dance, emotional growth, and finding true love. Devarajan’s sophomore novel is a delightful romp through the competitive dance world, replete with nerves, sabotage, and oodles of romance. Raina and Aditya’s interactions crackle with chemistry, as Indian American Raina tries and tries again to save their relationship—all while facing the scrutiny and commentary of various aunties. Romantic tension and a range of emotions are on display as the duo work through their issues with heartfelt conversations—and lots of kissing. Raina’s journey to self-realization is enjoyable, and readers will feel invested in her. A charming and illuminating romance filled with swoony, timeline-altering chemistry.” -Kirkus Reviews “A heartwarming young adult romance with a fun, fresh spin on the time-loop concept. From the vivid Bollywood Dance competition setting to the charming cast of characters, it’s impossible not to fall in love with Sanskari Sweetheart—and with Ananya Devarajan’s writing.” -Ann Liang, New York Times bestselling author of I Hope This Doesn’t Find You “Sanskari Sweetheart pairs carefully choreographed time-looping surprises with a sweet, smart romance that dances off the page. Lively and surefooted, Devarajan’s latest puts a speculative spin on a charming story of family, rediscovery and renewed love.” -Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka, authors of Never Vacation With Your Ex
