Death Valley by Melissa Broder. It’s pretty abstract but definitely talks about death and coping with it, and it actually helped me a bit with my acceptance of my dad’s death.

His Dark Materials is a trilogy that’s basically about a girl going on a quest to apologize to her dead friend. Plus also there’s talking polar bears and stuff.

**Pet Cementary** by Stephen King is pretty much about NOT coming to terms with death. Brutal read, I think.
While I didn’t finish it, I liked **Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End**
A quote from the later: “There’s no escaping the tragedy of life, which is that we are all aging from the day we are born.”
