Band Aid 30

As you may all not know, I am an 80's music lover. I just love the music from that era, I think that was really 'music'. I love WHAM!, New Edition, Guns N' Roses, Phil Collins, U2 to name a few.

One of my all time favorite Christmas songs is the Band Aid song Don't They Know It's Christmas and I think there are some amazing artists that were on the original track. There voices were incredible and you could just feel the soul in the song.

In the new version, while I think it is good don't get me wrong, I feel like it just doesn't do it justice. While I think the artists they chose are great and they sound great on the track, it just doesn't compare to the original. The original is one of those oldies but a goodie. I can totally appreciate the effort and the cause for the song and the message they are trying to send, but I just love me the old version. Is that so bad?

Let me know what your thoughts are and listen to the two and compare. Be warned though, the men's hairstyles from the 80's are a bit funny.

Jisselle Reads: The Lux Series

So, I must say I have been waiting a long time to write this post. I was a bit book obsessed for a good few months this year and I read many a books. The series that stood out was the Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout.

This is a Young Adult Sci-Fi romance and it is incredible. Honestly, one of the best books I have ever read. I can not gush about it enough. I have waited this long to write about it because I was waiting for all the books in the series to become available and now they are! (They have all been available for a while ha-ha)

The series is about a girl named Katy and she moves from Florida to the middle-of-nowhere West Virginia. When she arrives she meets a boy named Damon and he is incredibly hot. You can not help but fall in love with Damon even though he is a total jerk.

To be honest, it is a bit Twilight-esque with the forbidden romance element and his being 'different'. I will let you find out for yourself just how different he is. However, it is a great read and really well written. After reading the Lux Series I read many other books written by Jennifer L. Armentrout and I am completely obsessed with every book she has written. I can guarantee you will be just as Lux obsessed as I am.

Here are the books in order:

Might I add the cover model is just dreamy? I promise you will not regret reading this series and also make sure to check out other books by Jennifer, she is an amazing writer and her books all feature incredibly smexy dudes... Who doesn't love that!

Happy Reading!
