I know one but I can't tell you, I don't want to encourage you to kill yourself. Read happy books, you sound depressed.

The Bell Jar is about a girl who has extreme depression, but I recommend Anna Karenina for the fantastic ending. Tolstoy.

Not really. Charles Dickens had at least one young heroine who died,(Old Curiosity Shop) but she didn't commit suicide. Beth in Little women died, but again not voluntarily. It appears that writers don't particularly like to write about young people committing suicide On the whole, characters who pull themselves together and find some way to deal with their problems and move on are much more interesting. What's interesting about giving up?

Well, there's one called The Awakening by Kate Chopin, but it's not about a girl. It's about a woman in the 1900s who changes a lot and her husband and society can't handle those changes.

It's one of the best teen books I've read. I'd recommend every teenage girl to read this book.

'She's come undone' by Wally lamb and a short story by Paulo Coelho called Veronica decides to die. The endings are a little different than what you are looking for but they are awesome reads

Anna, Ann, Annie by Thomas Parker is a tragic tale of a woman who is traumatized by family failure, the Holocaust and eventually romantic relationships. She doesn't commit suicide persay, but her aloofness and inability to protect herself is her downfall.
