Book description
Forgiveness - Chiquis Rivera (Audiobook)
Length: ~12 hours | Narrator: Chiquis Rivera herself
From the first word, "I wrote this book not to dismiss a rumor but to share something much more important," you feel that Chiquis is opening a personal diary. Listening to her own voice gives the story an intimacy that a printed page can only hint at. Her narration is warm and authentic; she never lets the weight of the subject drown out her own humanity.
The memoir takes us through a painful childhood marked by abuse from a man many admired as a music icon. Yet Chiquis does not dwell in bitterness. Instead, she uses her story to chart a path toward healing-conquering fear of love and intimacy, and ultimately seeking peace with the memory of her late mother, Jenni Rivera. The moments where she speaks about the distance that grew between herself and her mother are particularly moving; you can hear the ache in her tone as she recounts what she wishes she could have said to Jenni before the final day.
What makes this audiobook stand out is how Chiquis balances raw honesty with a sense of hope. She addresses questions like, "Was I able to make peace with Jenni?" and "Who needs forgiveness most?" not just for herself but for anyone who has faced trauma. Her voice carries both vulnerability and strength, making the journey feel relatable.
If you're looking for a story that is as much about resilience as it is about sorrow, this audiobook delivers. It invites listeners to reflect on their own capacity for forgiveness while honoring a legacy of music and pain. Chiquis Rivera turns her painful past into an empowering message-one that will stay with you long after the final note fades.
