Dang it. I know exactly what book you're taking about but for the life of me i can't remember the name. I'll dig into the memory banks a bit. I remember it showing up in the kindle store.
Grace, you give me hope! I started to think I imagined it!!! Let me know if you remember - I have a friend that really wants to read it!
Botched suicide reminds me of the film Girl Most Likely, but that wasn't a book. However, see this listhttps://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/...
I have been looking so hard because now it's driving me nuts! I ferment setting it in the kindle deals thing so I've been checking that because a lot of times they list the books multiple times.
Kris!!!! You are a Google genius! That's the book! Thank you SO much! I've been searching for almost a year :)

Oh that's an interesting tidbit! I'd have never known :)
Thank you! It's been driving me crazy as well since i knew I'd seen it!
But, things didn't turn out the way she intended, and she survived. The funny part was in the botched attempt (she had several hiccups along the way) and the aftermath of sending the letters. Having to correct the wrongs she made by writing some hurtful (although funny) letters to her close ones, as well as her humiliation at having failed even at suicide.
The end of the book is with her falling in love with her new book editor. She no longer feels so miserable as to kill herself, and realizes the whole attempt was her searching for a way out of her sad self.
The book honestly was written well, and thought this is a sensitive topic to many, it was written only with the best of intentions (I'm sure).
