There are so many!
But I’ll contribute:
A Key to the Doctrine of the Eucharist by Fr. Vonier
The Hidden Manna by Fr. O’Connor

You will find that the books written by Pope Benedict XVI are, by far,in my opinion, the best collection of writings on the Eucharist and the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Here they are:
The Spirit of the Liturgy
A New Song for the Lord
Feast of Faith
God is Near
In fact, early next year, the Vatican is going to release a complete anthology of all of his writings. The first book will be devoted to what he has written on the Liturgy.

I’m a convert - I think that converts and cradle Catholics may have a different list
I’d second this one, and add “The Mass of the Early Christians” by Aquilina.

Here’s a nice one by Bishop Fulton Sheen: Calvary and the Mass.
He describes the Mass in terms of the seven last words of Christ, which seems a little forced at times. Still, very informative. And the price is right, for sure.

by Father Benedict J. Groeschel, C.F.R., and James Monti.
Our Sunday Visitor Publishing Division 1997

Its pages make you pause, think, enjoy, grow in wonder. Its history begins at the beginning as James Monti quotes John Chapter 6 and then takes one century by century to the present. Its pages will bring back one’s own childhood memories as Father Groechel recalls his childhood view of the mystery of the Eucharist when he was about four years old. In each chapter are amazing Insights and facts.

I second this. Feast of Faith really opened my eyes in a new way to the awesomeness of the Eucharist. I just can’t say enough how the Pope gave me a new, more reverent, and more awe inspired view of the Eucharist.
Peace and good!

I really like If Your Mind Wanders at Mass. On Being Catholic Also has a couple of good chapters about the Mass. I really like Thomas Howard’s writing.
