(3) YA Eighteen-year-old Bennett finally gets his dream girl to agree to be his prom date, and immediately afterwards she's abducted by aliens. To find her he hitches a ride with an interstellar rock band. The over-the-top premise works well with a narrative that doesn't take itself too seriously. Characters manage to be grounded and realistic while still generating lots of humor.
