Can I write off real estate books as a business expense?

[Eddie Knoell]

Hello Bigger pockets, 

I am a new long distance investor. I want to purchase David Greene's book "Long Distance Real Estate Investing". How would I write that off? Would I simply tell my accountant to expense it on one of my properties next year on the Schedule E when he does my 2018 taxes?

Thanks in advance
