A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman. Had some issues for sure but I loved it

The Pact by Jodi Picoult.

Suicide – Édouard Levè

You might be interested in All My Puny Sorrows
by Miriam Toews. It’s the protagonist’s sister rather than the protagonist who struggles with suicide, but the book is a beautiful and sad rumination on the topic. It’s devastating at times and life affirming at others. Highly recommended.

Not fiction, but relevant.
The Myth of Sisyphus by Albert Camus.
It’s not a feel good self help “there is so much to live for” kind of book, but a serious philosophical examination of the question of suicide.
I highlly recommend checking out the audiobook narrated by Eduardo Bellerini. It’s a short listen.
