There is an old (well, not that old but it feels like I started it ages ago, just look at my English

) thread on the subject.

HoME sweet HoME?

I haven't read all of the HoME but I can't recommend everything I've read this far - both volumes of Lost Tales and The Peoples of Middle-Earth.

If you want to read something that does not (necessarily?) conflict with Tolkien's published works, the stories Tal-Elmar and The New Shadow are very interesting, but sadly unfinished. They can both be found in The Peoples of Middle-Earth.
