I am afraid that I don't recognize the 3rd and 4th titles.

The 3rd is from the comic strip Calvin & Hobbes. It's a nighttime book
that Calvin's Dad has read to him a thousand times, but Calvin still
insists.

The 4th is from Stephen King's "Misery". When the author of a popular
series kills the protagonist (Misery), a deranged fan kidnaps the author
and forces him to write "Misery's Return".

another title, _Dire Dawn_ (though I suspect that not many people have
