hotel rwanda and the book A long way gone

   The ending of the book A Long Way Gone was not what I had expected. It left me with many questions unanswered.  I can not  help but wonder if Ishmael's auntie, cousins and Mohamed made it alive or not. It  does not even give you details on how he got to the U.S. It just leaves you hanging. At least in the film Hotel Rwanda, there was an ending to the story. There was some closure because Paul's family and the civilians got saved in the end.
