The Negative Trait Thesaurus: A Writer's Guide to Character Flaws — Haven’t read this but it’s highly recommended!
There’s also some really good websites like:
NowNovel
u/CJWalley’s list of 147 Character Vices
WritinGeekery
There’s also Heroes and Heroines: Sixteen Master Archetypes — which I personally read and loved. It explores 16 archetypes created by the author to kind of jumpstart a character (whether you’re struggling or not). It details flaws, background, qualities of character, etc. It even has sketches in it! Super fun read, and may provide some value to you.
Good luck!
Or philosophy, psychology, historical texts. The DSM, even.
The Negative Trait Thesaurus is like a field guide to character development, minus the slog of fiction.
