Supplementary literature - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Buying English books is one of the things I am looking forward to doing on my trip to London this month. I am planning to purchase HoME (I already have the basics, Hobbit/LotR/Sil/UT). I also have Carpenter's biography, Shippey's Author of the Century and Foster's Guide to M-E. I'd like to ask the experts which additional supplementary books they would recommend me to get - I'm sure there's much out there that is unnecessary or not well done enough to merit spending the money on it. Suggestions?
