I don't know that it changes substantially after the first 60 pages or so. I remember liking the writing; the slightly creepy feeling of something being very, very off under the seemingly placid surface of things; the believability of the characters; the low-key way in which the story was told; and the way it made me think a few mildly profound thoughts about life and death.
I have no thoughts at all on the movie, except that, while it might be good, it will surely have a very different feel to it than the book, because I doubt what the book does, atmospherically, will translate over exactly.
