A big swooning romance, elegantly constructed and a pleasure to read... delectable The Times
"Entrancing. . . . There is a radiance to this saga. . . . the empathy with which Cummins envisions her characters is a poignant reminder that it is actual human beings who approach our borders, each with a singular story to tell."
-The Washington Post
"Elegantly constructed and a pleasure to read. . . . Puerto Rico, with its waterfalls, hummingbirds and tentacular banyan trees, is deftly evoked, as is its shift from a place of palaces and poverty to an Airbnb-studded tourist hub. . . . the results are delectable."
-The Times (UK)
"Filled with vibrant prose and emotion, this multigenerational saga tells the story of three women."
-Woman's World
"Speak to Me of Home hops through time to tell a touching story about roots and belonging."
-Real Simple
"Cummins explores our capacity to love and the ways we love. . . . The nuances of life and love, of family ties and fractures, and the 'home' in Puerto Rico, all serve to make this a novel that would be perfect for book groups to discuss."
-BookReporter
"A fine novel. . . . Daisy's sections are the heart of the novel, dipping into magical realism as her spirit navigates the border between life and death and brings the family to her bedside with triumphant and transcendent love. This commendable return for Cummins comes with a surprise cherry-on-top twist."
-Booklist
"Engrossing. . . . Cummins succeeds at breathing life into her large cast of characters and excels at depicting the nuances of a mother-daughter relationship."
-Publishers Weekly
"[A] moving novel."
-AARP, "Spring's Top Reads"
"Jeanine Cummins' Speak To Me Of Home is a masterful love letter to our shared homeland of Puerto Rico, the global diaspora, and every American. Once again, Cummins surveys the depths of the immigrant experience and compassionately examines the push and pull between our individual identity and our ancestral ties. Through three generations of Boricua women, the novel powerfully demonstrates that the greatest inheritance we can pass on is a courageous heart willing to adapt. Speak To Me Of Home is an epic must-read!"
-Sarah McCoy, New York Times, USA Today, and international bestselling author of Whatever Happened to Lori Lovely?
"Jeanine Cummins' new novel is a beautiful, tender, complex story of origin, displacement, identity, and belonging. Poetically written and brimming with heart, Speak to Me of Home tells of a family's yearning, through the generations, to find the roots that truly anchor them, the land that calls them home. A most moving and meaningful read."
