Nowhere but Up: The Story of Justin Bieber's Mom

Title:  Nowhere but Up: The Story of Justin Bieber's Mom
Author:  Pattie Mallette
Genre:  Autobiography
Format:  eBook





















I know a lot of people will either be turned off or turned on to this book simply because it was written by Justin Bieber's mother.  I want you to know that her story is worth reading.  Regardless of your opinions about her son, about music or Hollywood, her story is worth being told and it is worth being heard.

Pattie's story is incredible.  I have read a lot of memoirs and autobiographies written by high-profile individuals and this one of the top 2.  

Calling Pattie's childhood rough would be an understatement.  Starting with abuse from a young age.  Then drugs and alcohol as a teenager.  Then an attempted suicide.

Yes, this is the story of Justin Bieber's mother.  She talks about raising him as a single mom.  She talks about the struggles and joys of raising Justin on his rise to fame.  But the story is much more than that.  

This is Pattie Mallette's story.  The story of a young girl who didn't believe she was worth being loved until she met Jesus.  The story of a woman trying to overcome the horrors of her past.  And the story of a single mom doing her best to raise her child.
