WINSTON-SALEM — Bookmarks will host a free launch event Tuesday, Aug. 25, 2026, for Winston-Salem author Alisa Dean’s debut novel, The Jezebel List.

The program is scheduled for 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Bookmarks, 634 W. 4th St. #110, Winston-Salem. Dean will be joined in conversation by author Joanna Lowell, whose novel A Rare Find is also featured in the listing.

The event is designed as a conversation about a romance novel that explores identity, self-acceptance and the pursuit of a happy ending. A book signing will follow the discussion, giving attendees an opportunity to meet the authors after the program.

Admission is listed as free, but the event page asks attendees to register and reserve a spot. Bookmarks also notes that it is working with Dean on a preorder campaign for signed, personalized copies, so readers should use the official listing for registration and any updated bookstore details before traveling.
