How do I read this LDR with an Arduino?

Build a voltage divider: connect the LDR between 5V and an analog pin, and a fixed resistor (for example 10kΩ) between that pin and GND. Read the pin with analogRead(). Choose the fixed resistor close to the LDR resistance under your typical lighting.

Does it need a different circuit than a higher-resistance LDR?

No, the wiring is the same. Only the fixed resistor value changes, so pick one close to the LDR resistance you expect under your lighting.
