Presented by Kindred Stories - a Black-owned, women-owned bookstore in Third Ward, Houston, TX.
Doors open at 6 PM CST. Each ticket includes one complimentary signed copy of Alexandra Elle's new book, The Company We Keep . The book will be available for pickup at the event.
Join New York Times bestselling author Alex Elle for an inspiring evening centered on her powerful new book, THE COMPANY WE KEEP: Friendship, Connection, and Redefining What It Means to Grow Together. In this heartfelt and vulnerable work, Alex examines the friendships that shape our lives - the ones that nourish, challenge, and sometimes stretch us in unexpected ways.
In a time of increasing loneliness, THE COMPANY WE KEEP offers thoughtful guidance on showing up with intention, communicating honestly, and cultivating relationships that honor personal worth.
In conversation with special guests, Alex explores themes of people-pleasing, self-silencing, boundaries, and emotional responsibility, encouraging readers to take a deeper look at the energy they bring into their connections. THE COMPANY WE KEEP isn’t just about deepening friendships - it’s about becoming a truer friend to yourself first.
Tickets to the events include access to a live event with Alex Elle and a complimentary copy of THE COMPANY WE KEEP (published by Penguin Random House). The book will be available for pickup at the event.
All sales are final; refunds and transfers are not permitted.
