Jenni Rivera's Sister Rosie to Publish Her Own Memoir
Rosie Rivera, the youngest sister of the late Jenni Rivera, will be publishing her own memoir, detailing her life growing up with "La Diva de la Banda" and her struggle to overcome abuse.
According to Billboard, the book will be published by Celebra, the Penguin imprint responsible for publishing other celebrity books like those by Jennifer Lopez and Ricky Martin.
The book is called "Mis Pedazos Rotos." Rivera shared a photo of the cover on social media on Tuesday. The book will be available Feb. 2, 2016.
Like most of the Rivera family, since the plane crash that killed her famous sister in 2012, Rosie Rivera has been working on keeping her sister's memory alive. She was left in charge of Jenni Rivera's youngest children and her estate.
In a statement, Rosie Rivera shared that it was her famous sibling's idea for her to write her own memoir.
"Today, as I unveil the cover of my book, is the beginning of bringing a dream to life," she said. "It's a mission that began in my sister's heart 18 years ago. When I told Jenni about being sexually abused, she planted a seed in my heart: 'Sister, you have to write a book about your life to help other abused girls.' At the time, I thought she was crazy....But she saw beyond the pain and the broken pieces. She saw Victory."
This is the fourth memoir to come from the Rivera family. On July 2013, Jenni Rivera's official memoir "Unbreakable: My Story, My Way" was released and became a New York Times bestseller. The book, which was released on Rivera's birthday, was written by Rivera before her death.
In April 2015, Chiquis Rivera released her own memoir titled "Forgiveness," which detailed the abuse she and her famous mother suffered at the hand's of her now incarcerated father, Jose Trinidad Marín. The memoir discussed the scandal that tore apart her relationship with her mother.
In October, the Rivera family published "Jenni Vive: Unforgettable, Baby!" The book featured never before seen photos, journal entries and letters to her children.
