About this Event

Join Hive Center for the Book Arts and Zora's Place bookstore for the book launch of The Scapegoat Child by Kemone Hendricks.

The Scapegoat Child is a memoir-and-guide for those who grew up in narcissistic family dynamics.

The book blends personal narrative with practical, action-oriented strategies, identifying toxic roles, understanding trauma bonding, and implementing a concrete No Contact and safety plan.

It’s a compassionate, empowering resource for readers seeking validation, healing, and a roadmap to rebuild their lives.

January 23, 6-9 pm at 840 Custer.

Author talk and conversation from 6-7 pm, with book sales and signing from 7-9 pm.

Limited space available.
