How do i get rid of a cursed book?

i know its silly, but i have a cursed book. it's an Edgar Allen Poe book that i got as a christmas present a few years ago. this thing does not like to be moved, and terrible things happen whenever i move it. i want to get rid of it but i dont know how. i was thinking of burning it, or giving it to fish (none of my freinds will willingly take it). will burning it backfire somehow? And how should i get it out of my room and into my backyard where i can burn it without it freacking out? Please Please help me like i said i know its silly, but i really just want to get rid of this thing safely and quickly!!!!!!
