About this listen

 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.

I listened to this book over a long journey and it was a perfect companion. The comic misadventures of Sara's three teen heroines and their two twenty-something teachers on a chaotic school trip made me laugh, sigh and hope. Fun, exciting and romantic in equal measure, DC Trip took me on a journey as engaging and memorable as that of the characters themselves. I mostly know Sara from her wonderful autobiographical essays and her memoirs of her early life, but I hope one day she will give us another novel. Strongly recommended for a good time!

A joyous evocation of youthful intensity
