Book similar to Memento

Is there a book similar to the movie Memento, in that the story is (mostly) told backwards ?

Affinity by Sarah Waters uses a device like this.

I can't think of any at the moment, but it can't be hard to find some. It's a technique of literature. It looked groundbreaking and unique in the cinema, but in writing such narrative experimentation is much more common.

except it wasn't groundbreaking and unique at all and anyone who thinks it was is a stupid nerd who has no idea what he's talking about

Use of Weapons by Iain M Banks has two narrative strands, one forwards, one back. Thoughtful end of Space Opera, if that's your thing. It all pays off.

Don't change these.
