I voted for All the Missing Girls by Megan Miranda. It's a bit more than I want to spend, and it's not in my local library, but it was the only one screaming, "Read me!" Tales told in reverse chronological order, where the object isn't to find out how things end, but rather how they began, fascinate me. Remember that free cup of coffee scene in the movie 'Momento'? Or the scene where the woman is telling the fellow how she was beat up by someone she fears? Aw, that's a classic film! If All the Missing Girls captures a fragment of that film's inventiveness it will be worth it.
