Although I have always been interested in inorganic chemistry, I avoided reading organometallic chemistry papers as much as possible. The reason was that I really loved inorganic chemistry. Especially synthetic methods and coordination chemistry. Well, this summer, I started to read and study basics of organometallic chemistry and this semester I am taking a course where we learn A LOT about it. I now find the field really interesting and open to progress.
We spent almost a month of olefin metathesis and were expected to read tens of papers by the pioneers of the field. I will list them all below and I suggest that you read them ALL. You will notice that they are much better than ANY textbook. Amazing papers, written in such a wonderful way that everything makes so much sense. I will not write the titles of them though. The first list includes papers by Hoveyda, Schrock, Katz, Grubbs about his "First generation" and "Second generation" catalysts, ligand effects, type of olefins, mechanisms of the reactions, some organic synthesis papers where the catalysts were used efficiently etc. The second list is solely on Z-selective olefin metathesis papers by Grubbs, Schrock and Hoveyda (2011-present). I will give the DOI for those ones since I only have PDF's on my computer. I don't really want to open them one by one and write the details. I am sure you can easily find them.
