A Mess of Everything, a sequel of sorts to her first book, was also well received, as it was named one of Booklist's top 10 graphic novels of the year in 2010.

[2] Lasko-Gross' graphic novel Henni, about "cute animals and religious fundamentalism in a horrible, twisted marriage",[citation needed] was published by Z2 Comics in 2015.

She is working on a long-term novel project that chronicles the experience of a burn victim of an explosion.
