In the Night Room by Peter Straub

3.0

I enjoyed this book, even though I really don't understand it. I don't understand how the essence, or whatever, of Lily could be with Mark in some alternate universe, if Lily never actually died and is living across town. I get that the author somehow created Willy (also the essence of Lily) with his non-perfect book that pissed off Joseph Kalendar's spirit. But he didn't create the Lily-essence Mark met because he wrote the book after Mark disappeared. So it was entertaining, but perplexing.
