Meanwhile, what she really wants to do is go to film school in NY, and maybe start dating the football captain that she’s had a crush on for years. There is her very traditional family who is pushing her into prelaw, telling her to go to a school nearby, and saying she must marry a suitable Muslim boy. The one thing I adored in this book was seeing the two different cultures collide in Maya. Love, Hate & Other Filters follows Maya Aziz, an Indian Muslim girl growing up in Springfield, Illinois. Violence has no place in religion, and the terrorists are responsible for their own crimes, not the religion and not us.” “These terrorists are the antithesis of Islam. However, the other aspects of this book lacked any impact and took away from my overall opinion of it. Review In A Nutshell: The initial premise of Love, Hate & Other Filters is so good, and the scenes that revolve around Islamophobia and racism were compelling and left an impression. Unfortunately, Love, Hate & Other Filters wasn’t as amazing as I had hoped it would be. I was so excited to see a book coming out combating Islamophobia and showing the damage these horrible stereotypes cause.
