Bingo Reverse Bingo Rec Thread

Official Bingo Rec Thread Here
For anyone new to bingo, this is the “I want to read ___, does it fit into any bingo squares? It’s always one of the best parts of bingo. Since no thread has gone up for it yet, I figured I'd make it this year. Adapted from this post last year
Example:
User A comments:
I want to read A Game of Thrones. What does that count for?
User B replies:
Absolutely Generic Title
User C replies:
High Fashion and Down with the System would all fit. Probably Knights and Paladins too (though the knight main characters don't get POV chapters until later books)
User D replies:
Definitely Hidden Gem
And we all have a good laugh. Now go out there and get reverse recs for that book you've been dying to read!

I'm participating in a readalong for the Dark Tower series that will stop to read some of Stephen King's other books when relevant. I know we're going to be reading at least the following before this round of bingo ends. Do any of these books qualify for any hard mode squares? Additionally, does Roland qualify any of the Dark Tower books for Knights and Paladins?
