Nice list Rosie. I'd like to add a few early and/or Orthodox resources:
- Against Those Who Are Unwilling to Confess that the Holy Virgin Is Theotokos by Patriarch of Alexandria Cyril Saint and George Dion. Dragas (Orthodox Research Institute)
- Liturgical Illuminations: Discovering Received Tradition in the Eastern Orthros of Feasts of the Theotokos by Virginia M. Kimball (AuthorHouse)
- Mary the Mother of God: Sermons by Saint Gregory Palamas by Saint Gregory Palamas and Christopher Veniamin (Mount Thabor Publishing)
- Patristic Sermons on the Feasts of the Theotokos & Ever-Virgin Mary by John A. Peck (Amazon Digital Services, Inc.)
- The Life of the Virgin: Maximus the Confessor by Saint Maximus Confessor (Yale University Press)
- Theotokos: Theological Encyclopaedia of the Blessed Virgin Mary by Michael O'Carroll (Dominican Publications)
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

Excellent.
May I also add True Devotion to Mary by St. Louis De Montfort

There are also a couple of titles we'll hopefully get in the Popular Patristics Series, Part 2 or 3 relatively soon: SUGGESTION: Popular Patristics series by St. Vladimir's Seminary Press
And I've been nagging about Raymond Brown et al: Mary in the New Testament. A Collaborative Assessment by Protestant and Roman Catholic Scholars: Some ecumenical books.
Another fairly ecumenical one would be Br. Max Thurian: Mary: Mother of the Lord, Figure of the Church. (He was the 'chief theologian' of Taizé and an observer during Vatican II. Born Reformed, but rumours say he converted to Catholicism a few years before his death (long after this book was written).)
And then there's Scott Hahn, of course (but I suspect that will turn up before New Year whether we suggest it or not).
