About this Event
Join us as we welcome Drag Queen, Comedian, Producer, and Award-Winning Author Jeza Belle to celebrate the release of her newest book, Secrets in the Tallgrass.
Jeza will be in conversation with Bookstagrammer and friend of the store Colby Daniel. Tickets are free, but registered guests will receive 10% off the book. Sign-up at the link in our bio or the events page of our website. We recommend preordering your book with your ticket to guarantee a copy. Backlist titles can be preordered on our website.
Jeza Belle's guest articles have appeared everywhere from the Huffington Post to the Advocate. Jeza's books include the beloved, trashy cookbook "The Harlot's Guide to Classy Cocktails," and the highly controversial, "Jeza's Jesus Juice-A Drag Queen's Christian Devotional," which broke ground as the first mainstream Christian book written by a drag queen anywhere in the world. Additionally, Jeza has ventured into the world of historical fiction with The Presence Collection, four standalone novels that feature LGBTQ+ main characters in settings where their existence has been minimized or ignored. The first two books, "Blood Rouge," and "The Freedom to Love," have received high praise for their bold and fresh takes on significant historical periods. Jeza Belle has proven time and time again that she is a force to be reckoned with in all aspects of entertainment.
