Queerleaders

Written by M.B. Guel

Narrated by Chloe Cannon

Mack snuck a look over her shoulder at the cheerleaders just as Veronica took her place at the top of the pyramid. Time seemed to slow as Veronica swung her long, blond ponytail over her shoulder, pompoms high in the air . . .

Mackenzie is used to being different from other kids-and to being bullied for not fitting into the rigid social expectations of her Catholic high school. Luckily, Mack's best friend Lila has her back so school isn't the total hell it could be. But it's pretty damn close.

Until something very mysterious happens-Mack becomes a cheerleader magnet. Even she has a hard time believing it. And Lila is not too happy about her friend's sudden popularity with the cool kids.

Is Mack being set up for an epic fail? Or is she finally headed for acceptance-and maybe even romance?

Reviews for Queerleaders

[Emaleigh Pightling · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

This book is very YA but I enjoyed it.

It was incredibly cheesy and predictable but I liked how it explores one's sexuality without it being forced.

You see Mac and Lila platonically touching and they even explore their friendship (they're just bff's).

When is outed by the bully and declares she'll just steal all the jocks' girlfriends, you know exactly what's going to happen. She kisses so many women, and finds a beautiful girlfriend who loves her and accepts her, even when she isn't honest.

It was corny and incredibly easy to listen to but I honestly related so much with being queer in a Catholic school (try it being all girls and if you came out, you'd have to go to the head teacher ??).
