SUMMER 2008 READING--working list

I realize that it's only Feb 15, but (1) the itch is sore upon me and (2) I'd like any suggestions I can get. (Update: 5/26/08)

Well, summer reading was quite a bit different than I expected in February. Maybe spring? (Update: 12/12/08)

This summer's reading will, I think, focus on theological method and biblical theology (by testament, canonical???). Given my normal turtle-like reading speed, many of these will be fast read (ala Reading on the Run).

This post will grow as I find books. Suggestions requested.
