Cheer Readers (図書ガールズ?, Tosho Garuzu) is the 33rd minigame in Rhythm Heaven Fever and the 73rd minigame in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. This game is about the School Library Pep Squad who are cheering up people who study at the library. The sequel, Cheer Readers 2, is unlocked later on.
Gameplay
The player controls the twelfth girl (bottom row, the farthest right). Throughout the song, there are many vocal cues in the form of "cheers" that indicate different patterns. To get a hit, the player must flip/spin their book at the right time. The cheers include:
- "One! Two! Three!": Starting from the top, each row of girls flips their book on a word. The player needs to flip on the "Three!".
- "It's up to you!" (Japanese: "Hey you can do!"): Starting from the left, each column of girls flips their book on a word. The player need to flip on the "you!".
- "Let's go read a buncha books!" (Japanese: "Let's everybody go, yeah!"): Starting from the top left corner, the girls quickly flip their books as a "wave" in a diagonal pattern. The player needs to flip on the "books!".
- "Rah-rah sis boom bah-BOOM!" (Japanese: "Ne-ver gi-ve up, ooh!): Starting from the top left corner, the girls will do the motion in "Let's go read a buncha books!", but at a slower pace. The player needs to flip on the "BOOM!"
- "OK, it's on!" (Japanese: "Okay, don't mind!"): This cue acts in a different way. Instead of flipping, the girls will instead spin their books and then open them to form a design (see the "Trivia" section for all the designs that appear). The player must start spinning on the "it's" and stop on the "on!".
Throughout the song, the player will have to perform a variety of these cheers. Each one always stays at the same speed, but the distance between cheers can vary.

Timing Notes
- Hit: The Cheer Readers' routine will continue.
- Barely: The player's Cheer Reader's book is slightly tilted. On one of the "OK, it's on!" cue, the book will either show a different page than the rest of the group or be off-position. The player's Cheer Reader will also blush from embarrassment. In Fever, a barely counts as a hit when going for a Superb, but it counts as a miss when going for a Perfect. In Megamix, a barely always counts as a miss.
- Miss: The player's Cheer Reader's book is only halfway flipped. When flipping the book open, the image on the Player's Cheer Reader's book won't match the other Cheer Readers' books and fails to complete the image. The other Cheer Readers will cast worried looks at the player's Cheer Reader.

Since the Cheer Readers started, the library has become quite the popular hangout. Apparently when people need a quiet place to read, they're going to the playground. |

Trivia
- Cheer Readers is a pun on "Cheerleaders".
- Many cameos from the previous Rhythm Heaven titles appear inside the open books. The Characters are:
- ROBO M from Fillbots, which appears in the tutorial for this game.
- An Onion from Rhythm Tweezers.
- DJ Yellow and his Student from DJ School.
- The Stepswitchers from Lockstep.
- Space Gramps from Space Dance (Remix 7 only).
- Play-Yan from Night Walk (Remix 7 only).
- A Frogette from Frog Hop (Remix 7 only).
- All three veggie variants from Crop Stomp.
- A Paddler from Rhythm Rally.
- The Moais from Moai Doo-Wop that appear in the sequel.
- And two versions of the girl from Tap Trial. There is the third version of that girl that cannot be seen in the actual game, though it can be hacked with changed textures so it will appear.
- In the epilogue screens, a boy resembling the boy from Double Date is seen talking to the Cheer Readers.
- This is one of the few games in Rhythm Heaven that has three or more commands. (This one has 5)
- There is an unused asset of an unfilled ROBO M found in the practice mode files of this game in Megamix. Interestingly, this asset isn't present in the files of the original game in Fever.
- The vocal cues & the book-flipping cues are separate from each other. Due to this, it is possible for the game to be modded for the flipping/opening cue to be completely different to what the girls say.
- The vocal cues are voiced by voice actor Heather Gautschi, who is also responsible for the voice of Pirate Captain Jackie.
