DIFFERENT follows Sneha, an Indian immigrant graduating during a recession who is "fortunate" enough to find a contractor position and moves to Milwaukee. As she navigates her first job and adulting, Sneha dates women, finds friends in a new city, and deals with a toxic property manager who lives downstairs while battling a looming recession that might cause Sneha her job and her family's past that threatens to swallow her whole.

DIFFERENT is a beautifully written and deeply profound coming-of-age story of a young queer woman. I resonated with so many themes. I remember working as a contractor without health insurance and a safety net to the point of having nightmares of getting fired all the time
