This book is not as good as ALIENS ON VACATION. the exciting part seemed, sort of, well, slow and less mature. It was like a corny tv show- he spends most of his time moping because nobody's paying attention to him, and then they finally do, and it's happily ever after! Not the best sequel I ever read.

Fun sequel to Aliens on Vacation. You absolutely must read that first. It was great to go back to the Intergalactic Bed & Breakfast. I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first for the most of the book. Part of that was feeling David's discomfort at all of the changes that happened while he was away. The end plays out very well, however. I was pleased with how everything wrapped up nicely in the end. I hope that there will be more in this series.

Alien on a Rampage is the sequel to Aliens on Vacation. This book begins with David returning to his grandmother's bed and breakfast for a second summer. He's excited for another vacation full of responsibility and adventure. Things aren't all he thought they would be. Amy has taken over a lot of responsibility and Grandma's creepy alien repairman Scratchell seems to be hiding something big. Can David save the hotel and the world?

This sequel was just as good as the first book in the series. The mystery was more serious than in the first book but still filled with humor. A great addition to this book was David's alien pet with an insatiable appetite. I laughed and smiled and couldn't put the book down until I finished it. It reads like a funny Disney channel movie.

Appropriateness: There is no adult content in this book and is has a great message. I recommend this book to boys and girls 10-14 with it being completely appropriate for younger readers who aren't overwhelmed with the size of the book.
