Books in the How to Ruin a Summer Vacation series

Going to Israel with her estranged father is the last thing Amy wants to do this summer. A spoiled American teenager with an attitude that matches her killer Jimmy Choo slides, she''s got a serious grudge against her dad, a.k.a Sperm Donor, for showing up so rarely in her life. Now he''s dragging her to a war zone to meet a family she''s never known, including her ill grandmother who''s the only source of comfort in this strange land. Sharing a room with her unfriendly cousin, igniting a brawl at the local disco, and having her Ferragamo sandal stolen by a mutt . . . one hilarious humiliation after another tests Amy''s Þerce spirit. Finding her place in a foreign culture isn''t easy, but as Amy learns to shed her tough-girl persona, she discovers that making friends, falling in love, and connecting with her family and heritage isn''t impossible after all.
