Kristin Chenoweth had her family by her side at her most recent book signing!

The Tony and Emmy-winning actress was joined by fiance Josh Bryant and their adorable pup Thunder at her L.A. book signing on Wednesday night (March 8) at The Grove in Los Angeles.

Kristin signed copies of her new book “I’m No Philosopher, But I Got Thoughts” for fans and even friends like Melissa Peterman, who showed up to support.

In a new interview with The Oklahoman, Kristin talked about the book feeling conversational.

“I want people to feel like I’m their friend that’s listening, too. I want them to understand that we all have kind of a similar anxiety, depression sometimes. It’s the unlovely, unbecoming things to talk about. … My dream is for somebody to read it and pass it along, or say, ‘You gotta get this book because it encouraged me and helped me understand I’m not alone in certain ways.’ Or, ‘Wow, look what happened to her, this crazy experience.’ I share a lot of things that are silly, too, that I never thought I’d tell. But I’m I talk a lot about the things I battle that nobody knows about,” she said.
