For beginners, I'd recommend 'The Amityville Horror' by Jay Anson. It's based on a supposed true story of a haunted house, which adds to the scare factor. Also, 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' by Oscar Wilde has some horror elements in it. The idea of a portrait that ages instead of the person is quite spooky and it's a relatively easy read.

Also, 'Animal Farm' by George Orwell (although Orwell was British, this is often studied in American literature courses) is an accessible allegory about power and corruption.
For beginners, I'd recommend 'A Walk to Remember' by Nicholas Sparks. It's a simple yet deeply moving love story. The characters are easy to connect with, and the story is not too complex. Also, 'Ella Enchanted' by Gail Carson Levine has elements of romance in a fairy - tale - like setting, which is great for those new to the romance genre.
