(Another Special Announcement) The Audiobook is Live for WTF Just Happened?!: A sciencey skeptic explores grief, healing, and evidence of an afterlife !

WTF Just Happened?!: A sciencey skeptic explores grief, healing, and evidence of an afterlife My first book is now available in audio on audible and apple! APPLE | AUDIBLE ABOUT BOOK ONE: What if everything you thought you knew about how the world worked was challenged?Elizabeth “Liz” Entin considered herself a rational person who dismissed the concept of an afterlife as nothing more than wishful thinking. Shattered and lost after her dad’s unexpected death, she was moved to investigate if there was any scientific evidence of an afterlife. This exploration shook her understanding of the world to the core.With a skeptical eye and a profound passion for understanding the inexplicable, Liz studies psychic mediums, takes classes on ghost hunting, attends a seance, attempts spoon bending and volunteers for an organization that scientifically researches mediums. When this organization holds a weekend conference, she finally gets a behind-the-scenes view into this world, where everything she has been studying culminates in one of the biggest WTF’s Liz has encountered. But is there actually enough evidence to prove we survive . . . that her dad is still with her?Liz’s hilarious and honest take on the evidence behind life’s biggest mysteries is eye-opening for anyone who has ever wondered about the afterlife, but cannot be content with faith. This book will give you a reason to hope and leave you wondering what the f*ck just happened?!

(Special Announcement) WTF Just Happened?!: A sciencey skeptic investigates even more evidence of an afterlife and fights for justice with her dead dog.

(Special Announcement) WTF Just Happened?!: A sciencey skeptic investigates even more evidence of an afterlife and fights for justice with her dead dog.

WTF Just Happened?!: A sciencey skeptic investigates even more evidence of an afterlife and fights for justice with her dead dog is now available for sale! Buy now on Amazon. Paper and other outlets will be available in about one week. In this sequel to WTF Just Happened?!: A sciencey skeptic explores grief, healing, and evidence of an afterlife, Elizabeth “Liz” Entin continues to look for scientific proof of an afterlife. Something she had always considered about as realistic as the Tooth Fairy when she first began this “shot in the dark” search after the loss of her dad in 2015. Picking up where the first book left off, this second book in the series shows Liz once again using her analytical mind to research psychic mediums and the scientists who study them. No longer new to this strange world, she starts conducting her own “WTF can happen?!” experiments with mediums, studies under a former secret psychic spy from the United States Army, and learns from experts in paranormal activity. She tries to talk to dead people (including her dad), attempts to meet up with mediums in different dimensions, move objects with her mind, and applies CIA tactics to “spy” on faraway spots. She is still stunned when, during these attempts, the inexplicable continues to happen. In the process, she deepens previously unimaginable relationships with mentors who have studied this afterlife phenomena for almost 20 years—and keeps getting more and more evidence that everything she once thought about how the world (and the world beyond it) worked was way more extraordinary than she, a hard-core “sciencey-skeptic,” had ever imagined. And, in a subplot that seems to fall right in line with the weird trajectory of her life, and the humorous approach she takes to addressing life’s darker moments, Liz unexpectedly gets called as a secondary witness in the Harvey Weinstein case which despite its serious tones— is filled with the most hilarious twists, including “visits” from Liz’s late chihuahua, Peanut. Through it all, Liz continues to honestly address the reality of living with grief, call out frauds among the medium community, embrace her full awkwardness as she meets researchers she always admired, and share her continued shock that overall very normal people seem to be doing the impossible. Liz will not only have you laughing but will also leave even the biggest skeptic wondering (and hoping)… could this really be true? Could we actually survive death?
