This book was pretty fun to read, and it was certainly entertaining. If I ever want a silly field trip read filled with high school shenanigans, I'll pick this up again.

I enjoyed this light novel about hijinks on a high school trip to Washington DC, although it's indistinguishable from a YA novel and I don't understand why it's in the adult fiction section (profanity? a couple sex scenes? partly from an adult POV?). It's told from the shifting perspectives of three teenage girls and one of their female teachers. I could picture the movie. The teacher is in love with a math teacher, who is sort of an uptight nerd. Together the two teachers are in charge of 16 high schoolers on this weekend trip. It's also got some 'I did research on this museum and now we'll learn about it in my novel' sections, and I thought the ending was a letdown and contrived.

I was hooked from the beginning- even though parts felt immature, but what do you expect from a high school book? The wit was quick and entertaining, the feminism was on point, as well as the LBTQ, and political references. The shenanigans were hilarious and I’m so jealous they got to meet Obama. I assume the President was Obama, going by how cool he was. Super fun book!

Man, I gotta say I'm kind of disappointed with this book. I saw it in stores about two years ago and I've been wanting to read it ever since. I don't think it was bad by any means, just not what I was expecting. I thought it was going to follow two teachers instead of the students but that's fine. I liked the characters, I liked the mischief and it was incredibly fast-paced (I read it in the span of about 2.5 hours). Overall, average. Not spectacular but good enough.

This book was just meh, for me. It had an interesting premise, but felt too juvenile. There were too many things that happened that were far fetched and unrealistic. Too much drug use, profanity and strange relationships. Not a keeper or worth the time.
