Spoiler!

In the book she totally goes into the fire cause she's grieving and fully expects to die. Other wise she would have had to go to the mountain and live with the other widows of the horse lords for the rest of her days. She decided burning, as long as she burned the bitch who killed her husband with her was preferable.

I also think the scene with Sansa and Joeffery actually was taken from the second book.

I didn't really get that from the show. I thought that part was pretty accurate. I'm pretty sure she knew about her fire tolerance from the thing with the eggs in the fire.

The book does say...

Spoiler!

...all her hair burned off. I would've liked to have seen the scene with the riders pledging themselves to the first female Khal though.
