It took me a while to warm up to this book and truly get invested in the story, but once I was invested I powered through this book so quickly because I just needed to know that Yumi and Painter would be okay. 

So many twists and turns. Very different from other Sanderson books, but really really good. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was that it took me a while to get into it.
