This should be a complex sentence because it consists of 2 clauses

Independent clause The teacher recommended the book
Subordinate clause that Susan read

The second clause is an adjectival clause because it describes further what kind of a book is the one that the teacher recommended. Both are clauses because they both contain predications.
