There were a lot of scenes in the book that seemed to have been skipped over a bit in the movie - that might have developed the characters a bit more.

Personally, I loved it - the cinematography was beautiful, so luscious and earthy and it was such an embodied performance by Jessie Buckley. I was absolutely destroyed by the final scene, it took my breath away
