I think it can be considered that Circe did die by suicide because trought the book there has been over and over the idealization of dying and in the end she caused her own death to happend

There is a very explicit, bloody cesarean birth, and another one slightly milder.

Early on, a mention of it, but it’s unclear if the rumour is true. It is also only a few sentences at most.
