Publisher's summary

Chiquis Rivera is a singer and the daughter of the late music superstar Jenni Rivera. In Forgiveness, her memoir, Chiquis bravely reveals the abuse she suffered at the hands of her father during her childhood and the difficulties she's faced in her personal life as a result. Despite growing up marked by the wounds of abuse, she eventually conquered her fear of love and intimacy.

This book also recounts what caused the distance between her and her mother toward the end of Jenni's life. In Forgiveness, Chiquis brings to light truths that she wishes she had been able to reveal to Jenni.

Two years after her mother's death, Chiquis answers the most difficult questions: Was she able to make peace with Jenni? And in this story of triumph and tragedy, who is most in need of forgiveness?

Audio

I loved the book, the bio,the story it was beautiful! However I didn't like the audio, I feel Chiquis should have read it or someone who is Hispanic it would have given it genuine emotion!

Great story, Terrible Narration

Once I started, I didn't want to put it down. A fast-paced account of Chiquis life. She went through so much and came out strong. But whoever selected the narrator is clearly out of touch and hadn't read the book. Cringe - worthy accents and no understanding of Spanish.

Very Interesting

I grew up knowing about the Riveras but I was never a fan mainly because of my parents. Though, after Jenni’s passing, I became invested based on things that were said in the media. Chiquis covers her true story and her POV of her life struggles with both parents.

I’m glad I listened to this book, just goes to show what people still don’t know what happened but are mainly going with what narrative the “media” wants to show.

I look forward to listening to her newest book covering her most recent life experiences.
