DC Trip

Alicia Deats is a new teacher chaperoning her very first high school trip to Washington DC, and nothing could be more terrifying than a class full of horny, backstabbing, boundary-pushing teenagers under her watch. To make matters worse, she embarrassed herself with her co-chaperone Bryan Kenner with one too many margaritas and an ill-placed vomiting incident at last year’s teacher mixer and is hoping this trip can be a fresh start for them. Alicia believes in positive reinforcement and trust to keep her students out of trouble, but best friend high school sophomores Gertie, Sivan, and Rachel have a different idea: they plan to take full advantage of the un-parented freedom that a trip to DC offers. DC TRIP by novelist-comedian Sara Benincasa is an honest and irreverent journey of sexual confusion, bar shots, drag queens, and pot cookies in the Rose Garden.

A good laugh

I miss you Sara Benincasa!!! The story was enjoyable. The characters were relatable. It was nice to hear a coming of age story with no cell phone usage. 😍

Hilarious and touching

I loved this story from start to finish. It treads a beautiful line between vulgar, sweet, and funny. I smiled the whole time I listened to it

Raunchy… but that’s what high school is like!

Only a teacher would appreciate and say “spot on” when it comes to how raunchy high school teens are and could be at school or even a trip away from home. This book was crazy in a good way. I enjoyed it and laughed a lot.

Bad

Just so bad. Don’t waste your tome. And the reader pushes after every word like Capt. Kirk.
