The book is a lot more comprehensive and goes into a lot more detail than the movie does. Although the movie is very accurate, the director did take some artistic license in order to increase the movie's entertainment value. For example, the astronauts did not get in a heated argument in the capsule about whose fault the explosion was, and in the beginning of the movie Jim Lovell saw the moon landing from Mission Control, not from his house. That scene was done to introduce the characters.
Jim Lovell's book is called "Apollo 13" and he also has an audio version of it.
