Is Does glucose form a molecular lattice in the solid state?

When I look at solid Iodineiodine, it is a molecular lattice held by van der waalsWaals forces. Glucose is also simple molecular and so I naturally assumed that because it is solid like iodine, it forms molecular lattice held by Van Der Waals forces. However when I search it up, I get results for iodine but not for glucose. So my question is does glucose actually form a molecular lattice like iodine when solid?
