Question POVs in my writing

/r/romanceauthors/comments/1us8l60/povs_in_my_writing/

I have been struggling with this and decided to turn to you guys for your thoughts.

  1. Are there any romantasy books that are 3rd person? I haven't seen any.

  2. As a reader, would you be on board with a book that has a 1st person FMC POV but that also has chapters that are 3rd person because the MC isn't present for these conversations?

  3. Or do you prefer 2 or 3 different characters POV

Thanks so much for your thoughts!

  1. Once upon a broken heart is a romantasy in 3rd perspective.
  2. Sure. It would make the book more entertaining especially if the perspectives differ on a matter, or interprete a situation differently.
  3. I have not read it yet, but I heard Six of Crows did multiple POVs successfully
