First Person POV• Example from Percy Jackson: Look, I didn’t want to be a half blood. If you’re reading this because you think you might be one, my

advice is: close this book right now. Believe whatever lie your mom or dad told you about your birth, and try to lead a normal life.

It’s true, Percy does talk to the reader sometimes. But Percy is still the one narrating the story, so it is still in his “first person” perspective.

Limited Narrator

• a narrator who is confined to what is experienced, thought, or felt by a single character, or at most a limited number of characters.

• They do not seem to be sure of what every character is feeling.

Objective Narrator

• This narrator can only tell you what can be seen or heard. They cannot know anyone’s thoughts or feelings.
