This is a great read that's well written by Steven Gould who tells the story of a teen who is given an incredible ability and has to figure out how to deal with it. David, the main character, one day discovers by accident that he can teleport anywhere in the world just by thinking of his destination. He isn't sure why he can teleport, but he has fun trying to figure it out while he's robbing a bank, getting a girlfriend, finding his estranged mother and tracking down a group of terrorists who the FBI and police are also pursuing. David discovers that with his ability, life becomes both easier and more difficult for him, depending on the circumstance. As his ability develops he has to figure out the right choices to make.
