I've always been interested in paranormal and found this book enlightening. It was reassuring to read about the author's own personal experiences with mysterious happenings and how common these are in the general population. He references many professionals–doctors, scientists, psychologists and other psychiatrists– who've also experienced paranormal phenomena. There is so much we can't explain. This non-fiction book, which was a finalist for the 2019 Whistler Independent Book Award, doesn't explain these mysterious occurrences, but at least Dr. Matas does a good job in de-stigmatizing events and feelings of this nature, ones that so many have.
