Sure. 'The Scarlet Letter' is a great choice for a beginner. It's relatively short and has a very engaging story set in a historical context that is easy to understand. The themes are also very relatable like love, sin, and how society treats those who are different.

I would recommend 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn'. It's written in a very accessible style. Mark Twain's use of humor makes it an enjoyable read while still presenting important historical and social aspects of the time, such as the relationship between the races in the South. You get to follow Huck's journey down the Mississippi River which is both exciting and educational.

But Tang Yu, it’s you who has issues!” The man put down the newspaper and agreed to what his young wife was saying, “Why would they write false information? Your zodiac is the pig!” “Tang! Yu!” She stomped her feet out of anger. The man grinned, “So what we have no kids? You are my little baby.” Pei Qiqi thought, how did this scene change so fast!
