Suggest me a book that will probably make me hate human life
Something like that or something that’d make me feel nihilistic and suicidal would also do the job. Don’t ask me why, I just want unpleasant books that aren’t unpleasant to read.
I would recommend Heaven by Mieko Kawakami, its about a passive 14 year old boy who is bullied for his lazy eye and his companionship with a girl who is also relentlessly bullied.

A Little Life is basically trauma porn (I loved it still) and would make most people suicidal
LawOfLargeBumblers on
Of course: Journey to the end of the night, by LF Céline.
The conspiracy against the human race, by T. Ligotti.
Basically anything by Thomas Bernard
But, OP, are you OK?

All of these are misery fests. Starting at the bleakest:
Disgrace – J.M Coetzee
Light In August – William Faulkner
Journey to The End of the Night – Louis Ferdinand Celine

If you have never read it before, I can highly recommend George Orwell 1984 for that.
How about the Christian church. Pillars of the earth.
Less Than by A.D. Long.
Good Reads link so you can check out the reviews and see if you’re interested. I imagine this will scratch that itch.
