Here Are Some Books I Wrote
Sucker Punch - Forthcoming March 2025.
“Probing and strikingly candid, this is another winner from Koul.”— Publishers Weekly
“A beautiful, painful, funny, and ultimately inspiring account of a marriage crumbling, told through Scaachi Koul’s distinct voice and trademark sense of humor. Brilliant.”— Jennette McCurdy, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller I’m Glad My Mom Died
“Scaachi Koul's Sucker Punch is an absolute knockout. An instantly essential entry into the modern divorce canon, Koul's collection of essays is packed full of diamond-sharp writing, exemplary wit, eviscerating truths, and—most importantly—a rib-shattering amount of heart. Here is Scaachi Koul at her most vulnerable, while somehow still casually holding onto her rightfully-earned crown as one of America's funniest living writers.”—Isaac Fitzgerald, author of Dirtbag, Massachusetts
“With a sharp wit and even sharper writing, Scaachi Koul writes a compulsively readable memoir that journeys into the dark heart of heterosexual love. This book will have you howling with laughter, weeping with rage, and furiously turning every page. Sucker Punch is an unapologetic story of one woman's fierce fight to keep those beautiful loud, funny, raw, tender, pugilistic pieces of herself in a world that wants to yank them away. This book is a beautiful bruiser.”—Lyz Lenz, author of This American Ex-Wife
“Sucker Punch is a generous and gutting book about marriage and mothers and the inheritances we all carry. Scaachi Koul’s genius here is stacking moments where you’ll burst out laughing, then pulling her own sucker punch: just when your heart is open, she sneaks in a turn that will make you weep. It’s a magic trick every time.”—Elamin Abdelmahmoud, author of Son of Elsewhere
