Your most memorable moments from reading this year

[James]

I hope you have enjoyed a fantastic year of reading. What I would really like to know is the books, the scenes or the text that stands out for you.

One of my favourite lines I read this year came from the late Hunter S. Thompson when he wrote:

They were not hired musicians, but I had a feeling they were putting on a performance, and any moment I expected them to fall silent and pass the hat. Then they would finish their drinks and file quietly into the night, like a troupe of clowns at the end of a laughless day.” The Rum Diary

Please let me know the gems you uncovered.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Hunter's books are full of gems...too many to list. I collect all his bios and writing.
