As I continued to read the book Room, I finished it off and was surprised by the ending. After Jack had jumped out the truck and told the man on the street what was going on, the guy called the police to chase after Old Nick. Then Jack told the police that Mom was in Room. Eventually, the police found Mom, saved both of them, and charged Old Nick for several charges which leads him to 25 years of life in jail. Afterwards, Mom and Jack started going to a mental hospital to try to recover from the past. It was extremely difficult for the both of them to cope with the outside world, since Mom hasn't been in it for the past seven years and Jack has never even been in it. They're situation that was lived in Room was attracted by the public so this made it even harder for both to live a normal life. Eventually, they both end up moving to a place of their own and get their own rooms. One day Jack asks Mom if they can take a visit to Room. Jack says a last goodbye and they leave.
Towards the very end of the book, both characters changed their perspectives of life. Jack became more open to the world. Although, Mom continued to be the same sad person, but understood that she had to change so that she could have a better life. Towards the end, I also noticed that it said that Jack was forgetting about Room and began to look at the outside world differently. He wasn't as scared as he use to be. Which is good news at least for him. In my opinion I think that Mom will eventually cope to her life because she has something to live for, which is Jack.
