I want to read the book but got the chance to watch this in theaters. I enjoyed it and I liked the story. There were a few things slightly out of place, like the main character wearing a good amount of makeup even though she lives in a swamp. The best performances were the husband and wife that ran the shop, I thought they did a fantastic job. The ending was pretty abrupt, and was condensed into a 2 minute sequence of them growing old together, where I feel like that could have been 5 or more minutes to convey more emotion.
