"Grown-Up Pose" was a heartwarming contemporary story of a woman trying to find her identity outside of being a daughter, wife, and mother. There is a romance aspect, but the main point of the story is Anu's journey. Anu does a lot of soul searching and trying new things, and it was interesting to watch her thought process through it all. It's an emotional journey, and Lalli captured that pressure valve feeling after listening to everyone else for so long. I liked the characters and writing style. I'm excited to read more from Lalli.
