I have decided to challenge myself to read 100 books over the next 12 months. In order to give myself a fighting chance, I am starting this challenge over the summer. I will post the titles of the books I read with a brief annotated bibliography and review. Please feel free to comment, give suggestions for books that I should read and join along. I would love company on this journey.

#11 Aliens on Vacation (The Intergalactic Bed and Breakfast) by Clete Smith
Scrub is being sent away for the summer, not to camp or to visit friends, but to stay with his grandmother in the "middle of nowhere" Washington. What he finds there is a lot more than he bargained for and her "guests" require a lot of looking after. Throw nosy neighbors and a girl into the mix and you have a great story. This is a good mix of science fiction and humor. I really enjoyed watching how Scrub would handle each new situation and the descriptions of the "guests" were vivid and imaginative. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
