![]() ![]() ![]() It was really nice to see such a narrative about a young, Muslim teen since we don’t get it very often! It follows May trying to figure out whether she should go for the appropriate Muslim, Indian guy or the inappropriate white, American guy. The first half of the book is pretty cute – which you don’t expect from the description. I also loved her strength throughout the book, and how much she grew from the beginning to the end. I loved the protagonist, Maya, and her passion for filming. ![]() There were a lot of things to love about Love, Hate, and Other Filters. On top of that, when a suicide bomber sharing Maya’s last name attacks a federal building in Springfield, Maya must come face-to-face with an onslaught of Islamophobia. And navigating love isn’t so easy when you’re in love with a white American boy your parents definitely won’t approve of. Except she’s the only Muslim in her town, which often makes her feel like an outsider. Maya Aziz is a pretty ordinary teenager navigating love and strict parents. ![]()
