Third person omniscient is definitely the way to go.

usually third person, but it depends on the novel.

Third omni…I like to read that, plus it’s how I write.

i choose third person pov…
although i do tend to get all caught up in a good first person pov.. historical fiction, or non-fiction first person povs though..
third person pov books.. just about anything.

Depends on the story. Both pov have their places.

Both. It sometimes doesnt matter at all. Once you start enjoying the story it is immaterial. I think so!

I would much rather read third person omniscient. I love it to death!!
But, I like to read 1st, 3rd, 2nd, whatever. I like them all. 3rd person just makes me feel like I am reading everyone’s thoughts and I like that.

I generally prefer third person… when I was little, I hated first person books.
Now it doesn’t matter all that much. I just tend to feel a little trapped in first person. I like knowing more than the main character, which is hard to do in first person, and to get over that, the book has to be well written to keep my attention when in first person.

Depends on the genre. If it is realistic fiction of today, I like first person. Third person is good too though. If its older, I like third person. This is because it is easier to understand.

i completely agree with most other posts. i like 3rd pov, because it feels like i am watching their life, and a real part of all the characters and places involved. 1st pov, just doesn’t do that, you really only get to know one character intimately….

i can’t think of many novels i’ve even read in first person, except maybe the lovely bones. and even then the narrator becomes omniscient.
i prefer third person because you get a better feel for the details, and imho that’s what novels are all about. just like if i were walking down the street and might miss some of the details, so might a first person narrator miss some of the details.

Third person is by far the most common, so we are used to it.
It also gives the ability to give depth to the story, know what people are thinking, etc.
First person is more challenging. You really have to know your shizzle to pull it off successfully.
Oddly, I picked up a vintage book and tried to read it. It actually would jump from Second person (yes, second person) to third person and back again without any rhyme or reason.
I couldn’t finish it.

Hmmm… good question =]
I like both, but i would say usually the third person.
It depends on the book though.
