Great choice. It's one of my wife's favorite books. She had me read it a few years ago. She is truly a brilliant writer.

she is unmatched for me. in a sea of nihilist novels, she shines. not to knock the nihilism. I can enjoy a Chuck Palahniuk novel as much as anyone. But, they don’t leave you feeling full.

I also enjoyed Gilead. My wife has read just about everything she wrote.
