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.

Praise for DC Trip

Praise for Sara Benincasa:

  • "Sara Benincasa's D.C. Trip is as wicked, dirty, funny and surprisingly poignant as her comedy. It's a wild, hilarious, and very grown-up ride into the world of teenagers and the adults charged with their care. Read it and laugh your ass off." -- Jill Soloway, creator of Golden Globe-award winning series "Transparent"

  • "The hilarious Benincasa's second book will give you all the field trip feelings (which, let's face it, are some of the strongest feelings humans ever experience). The protagonist is a new teacher daunted by the wild high schoolers she's chaperoning in the nation's capital--among her charges are three sophomores full of the spunk and daring inspired by being away from home for the first time. " --Glamour Magazine

  • * STARRED REVIEW: "This is a light yet deep novel that looks at the intricacies of both high school cliques and adult relationships. A fantastic add to fiction collections, this would be a great YA crossover for older teens (profanity and sexual situations are dealt with very well)." - Library Journal

  • "Like a crazier Tina Fey." - LA Weekly on Sara Benincasa

  • "Benincasa...creates situations that are jarringly outlandish, but still believable enough to be hilarious...A breezy, charming novel." -- BUST Magazine

  • An XOJane Editor's Choice Book of the Year
  • "I woohoo'd my way through every chapter because it's exactly what I expect from the author: hilarity, surprises, insight, and baby-name inso." --Amber Rambharose, editor, xoJane

  • "The perfect, frothy blend of teen angst, adult drama, and whip-smart social commentary. This novel is a trip in every sense." - Diablo Cody, Academy Award Winning writer of JUNO, and author of Candy Girl.
