Why would you want to read a book on this?

By choosing to live a long and fullfilling life with whatever circumstances this life gave you. Maybe you should look for a book that describes how to live properly and your question will be answered.

Don't need to suicide bro. 

We are all going to die in the next 150 years guaranteed.

call 988. it's the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. seriously call it. it might feel awkward at first but it is so helpful just to have someone there to listen. it's free and they'll stay on until you feel better. they follow up too. it's really a beautiful service that doesn't get enough attention. it's my go to last resort. make life the only choice.... also if you were serious about a book recommendation, i think that's the main focus of the tibetan book of the dead, i haven't read it yet so don't quote me on it. you can also die while alive, and i think that's the most proper way to die... leo has books about that on his book list... i think the process is called enlightenment or something... lol in all seriousness, be safe.

The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, Book by Sogyal Rinpoche

[UnbornTao]

First we should look into how to live properly (consciously). A deep and authentic individual I like and recommend is Ramana Maharshi. First becoming deeply conscious of his nature, and then at the end of his life dying gracefully.

@Something Funny lol, this reminds me of this
 

“When do you think people die? When they are shot through the heart by the bullet of a pistol? No. When they are ravaged by an incurable disease? No. When they drink a soup made from a poisonous mushroom!? No! It’s when… they are forgotten.”

Kill Your Self by Dogo Barry

[SaWaSaurus]

"The same as the light," Lakshmi repeated. "And yet it's all dark again."
"It's dark because you're trying too hard," said Susila. "Dark because
you want it to be light. Remember what you used to tell me when I was a
little girl. 'Lightly, child, lightly. You've got to learn to do everything lightly.
Think lightly, act lightly, feel lightly. Yes, feel lightly, even though you're
feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.' I
was so preposterously serious in those days, such a humorless little prig.
Lightly, lightly—it was the best advice ever given me. Well, now I'm going to
say the same thing to you, Lakshmi . . . Lightly, my darling, lightly. Even
when it comes to dying. Nothing ponderous, or portentous, or emphatic. No
rhetoric, no tremolos, no self-conscious persona putting on its celebrated
imitation of Christ or Goethe or Little Nell. And, of course, no theology, no
metaphysics. Just the fact of dying and the fact of the Clear Light. So throw
away all your baggage and go forward. There are quicksands all about you,
sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair. That's why you must walk so
lightly. Lightly, my darling. On tiptoes; and no luggage, not even a sponge
bag. Completely unencumbered." - Aldous Huxley, Island.

 

In 'Island', this is a dialogue between a woman on her deathbed and her husband guiding her through it. The entire scene is much longer, but this passage distills the essence of it.

Easy Death (Book)

I didn't think of this as suicidal, but as a way to transcend the fear of death and how to look forward to the afterlife when death comes (even if death is imaginary).
