I need to find a book that resonates with my feelings. I’ve always had a rough relationship with my dad. He is super supportive when it comes to finance, but he can’t seem to tolerate me in general. I have to always be careful when talking to him, cuz he can be suddenly triggered by some of my words and starts calling me names, mostly “stupid” and “selfish”. I want to give up on trying to cure this relationship, and want to read books that describe similar situations.

It really depends on your relationship with him. It kind of sounds like he’s not interested in empathy or a perspective change, so what you may need is something that’s about seeing and accepting people like them are who they are.
Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents is probably a good start.
