Publisher's Note
An honest revelation of life growing up in years so recently gone: pep rallies and dope parties, the coming-of-age rituals of a small Southern town in the early seventies. The seemingly trite becomes suddenly startling as we watch a "perfect teenager" explode halfway through her first year in college.

Pep-rallies, dope parties, coming-of-age rituals of a small southern town in the early 1970s--the seemingly trite becomes startling as a "perfect teenager" explodes halfway through her first year in college.

Industry Reviews
"Angst is what 'The Cheer Leader' is all about....Jo's first love affair with a 'wild' older boy whom she naively believes loves her, leads to a horrified sense of betrayal, an anorexic breakdown in her first year of college, and finally a tentative recovery."
New York Times Book Review - Anne Gottlieb (10/07/1984)

"Jill McCorkle promises the prolific excellence of an Anne Tyler."
Allen
