The twist at the end of this book sold absolutely everything for me.

I already loved the aspect of a prison healer being just and doing whatever it took to survive but to find out this is a villain origin story is the best thing I could have found out.

I got so invested in this book and its characters. I thought I had guessed the plot twist and was just riding that wave but I never expected those revelations. 
I have NEVER read a book with a plot twist that was well hidden and put together so flawlessly that I left my guard down and genuinely stopped breathing.
I just can't think of any words to describe what I'm feeling right now...
