mod, I think the bad twin thing was there just to fuck with people.
No, it's a real book that's actually being released as a cross-promotional thing. It's coming out as being written by that character that died on the plane. It seems kind of lame to me that they're doing that, but since it supposedly doesn't have much to do with the actual island itself, it doesn't bug me too much.
Supposedly though, the fictional author "wrote" another book that is out of print and may be more Lost related. Man, that sounds really confusing, I'm gonna stop thinking about it.
Hurley will be so sad now.
hmmm... he'll be sad, but I don't think she's dead.
