This one's kinda sensationalist but it's got a bunch of primary source photos and accounts: https://www.amazon.ca/Eye-Deep-Hell-Trench-Warfare-World/dp/0801839475
I can't recall actually reading a book on the conditions on the various fronts, at the various times in the war (like a trench from 1914 looked dramatically different than one in 1917), it's mostly just stuff you glean in passing by reading about the war. It's worth learning about the whole conflict - I maintain that it is the most important event in the modern world and nearly everything else that's happened since is resolution of stuff that started in the Great War (that's a bit of an exaggeration but whatever).
It's the right subreddit. I find WWI fascinating. Go for:
The Guns of August
The First World War, by Kohn Keegan.
American Heritage History of World War I.
Eye Deep in Hell.
For reading on trench warfare, [John Ellis' Eye-Deep in Hell] (http://www.amazon.com/Eye-Deep-Hell-Trench-Warfare-World/dp/0801839475) is a must have.
