I liked Home quite a bit. It covers the same story as Gilead, though from the perspective of the Boughton family rather than that of John Ames. In some ways it's a more "conventional" (though I hesitate to use that word) narrative than Gilead: it has a larger cast of characters, more actual scenes, and more plot, rather than just roving through one man's thoughts and memories. It's good, and a compelling story, but it just didn't sing on the page the way Gilead did for me.

There you have it: a long answer to a short question! Have you read her other novel, Housekeeping? I developed a new appreciation for it after re-reading it this year. Very dark!
