Reading
How can we determine whether an author's point of view is 1st, 2nd, or 3rd?
1st: Speaks from a personal POV using pronouns, such as I, my, we, mine
2nd: Very RARE. When the author speaks from the reader's POV, using pronouns like you and your
3rd: Speaks from an outsider-looking-in POV, using pronouns like he, she, they. 3rd person POV can be limited (telling one character's thoughts/feeling) or omniscient (more than one character's thoughts/feelings)
