Agent Bio
Sara Shandler joined The Book Group in 2025.
She’s especially drawn to fiction that moves—stories with energy, tension, humor, and an emotional throughline that keeps the pages turning.
In non-fiction, she’s drawn to memoir that places a personal narrative in conversation with the broader world, and big-idea nonfiction with a practical application.
