This is my own version of a weekly book haul and all things new on fuonlyknew.

I’m also linking up with The Sunday Post hosted by Kimberly @Caffeinated Book Reviewer.

Sunday Post

Some chit chat.

I didn’t do a lot of my usual features this week. When WordPress updated, the gremlins ran amok on my blog. I’m not kidding. It was chaos trying to fix things. The most persistent problem was trying to hide links behind images. After many attempts, I just couldn’t fix it. Know how I finally did? I dreamed about it. Got up Saturday morning, tried what I dreamed about, and it worked. Go figure. I do this often when writing reviews. I’ll dream about something I want to say, wake up, and quickly jot it on a notepad conveniently sitting on my night stand.

You know that saying, “Why fix it if it ain’t broke.” I seriously wonder sometimes if the powers that be play with stuff just to screw with me. LOL

  1. Sorry you had blog problems. But that’s crazy and awesome that you dreamed the solution, haha. Ooh I’ve read iZombie. I was disappointed with the last volume (supposedly they got rushed to wrap it up or something), but overall I still enjoyed the series, hopefully you will too!

  2. fuonlyknew says:

    I just loathe updates. They always mess something up and when I ask for help, they don’t do much. It is weird that I dreamed the solution. LOL I love the iZombie series on TV and thought I’d try to read the series too.

  3. Greg Hill says:

    Ugh updates and bloggy problems in general. No fun. And dreaming a solution? That’s kinda cool actually. How do I get that lol?

    Have a nice week. 🙂

      I seem to dream what I’m worried about before going to sleep. LOL In this case, it was a good thing!

  4. Blogger has its weird turns like that as well and it drives me nuts when it happens. Computers are meant to make your life easier, not more difficult…! At some point I plan to take a look at the izombie TV series.

  5. sjhigbee says:

    It’s horrible when you get zapped by gremlins – thought I’m enormously impressed that you dreamt the solution:). It’s been a good blogging week for you, as usual. Take care ahd hope this coming week is less glitchy! My Sunday Post – https://sjhigbee.wordpress.com/2017/04/30/sunday-post-30th-april-2017/

  6. Those pesky gremlins, glad you got it figured out. You got me with Apparition Lake, couldn’t pass up that cover! 🙂 Hope you have a great week and happy reading!

  7. I got goosebumps…so weird the dream revealed the solution!

  8. yvonne473 says:

    Sorry about your blog problems. I hate when those things happen. I picked up some of the same freebies you did. Have a great week!

  9. Ugh that stinks it got all messed up when it updated. I am always so nervous about that. Glad your dreams helped solve it though!! Have a great week!

  10. Sorry about the blog messed up. It’s frustrating when it happens. It happened to mine too.
    Anyway, All your books are completely new to me. I hope you enjoy them all. Happy reading and have a wonderful week. 🙂

  11. Glad your dreams helped you figure out the problem.

  12. Luckily I haven’t had issues when there has been updates. Now I probably jinked myself. lol. Glad you got it fixed though! Have a great week.

  13. Well done on dreaming up the solution, I wish my dreams were that helpful! I panic when I have tech problems!

  14. Ooooh! Apparition Lake looks really interesting! I hope you enjoy your new reads! Thanks for all the freebies!

    Here’s my Weekly Recap!

  15. How funny that you dreamed the solution to your tech problem! That’s definitely never happened to me before—I wish it would!

  16. I had to grab Baby Doll Socks and Murderous Vampires. Who can resist those titles. I already had Apparition Lake. Glad you dreamed up your solution!

  17. I always bite my nails in anticipation when major updates happen. I once updated my theme and I basically had to do it all over again. UGH! I’m glad you got it figured out.

    IZombie looks like a cool read. Hope you have a great week!~Aleen

  18. I grabbed some of the freebies…my pile of books keeps growing, but there ain’t no mountain high enough…

  19. Ugh. I hate when updates do that to things. I agree with you, why fix it if it ain’t broke? I say that about a lot of sights. Hope all’s fixed and you have a great week.

  20. Drangonfly says:

    oh thanks for sharing these freebies! Witch at Heart and Murderous Little Darlings sound GOOD!

  21. It’s so annoying when an update messes things up – I wish companies would realise that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! I’m forever having problems after updates. I’m glad you got sorted out though. I haven’t heard of the books you got this week but it looks like a fab haul, I hope you enjoy reading them all.

  22. I hate when things disappear, like the color and strikethrough options from the “old” WordPress kitchen. Have to go to the improved version to have them up in the dashboard. I think I might agree with your statement on the powers that be! How rude! That’s so interesting about your dreams!

  23. Lola says:

    Sorry to hear the wordpress update messed things up for you, but glad to hear you got it resolved. It’s amazing how sometimes the best ideas can come to you in a dream. I hope this week is a good one!
