Poll for the avid readers...

Out of curiosity... Which perspective do you enjoy the most:

1st person- "I walked into the bar and..."

3rd person limited- "Anna Marie walked into the bar and..."

3rd person omniscient- "Anna Marie walked into the bar, thinking that she hadn't had a margarita in about a month"

Why?

Which do you enjoy the least?

Enjoy the most - a tie between 3rd person omniscient and 1st person.  I like knowing all the info.  Of course, if the book was in 1st person, I would probably already know that Anna Marie needed a margarita. 

Enjoy the least - 3rd person limited.  Because it IS limited! 

ETA:  Hey AM.   I've missed you this week.  I popped on for a second, and this was an awesome post to open for a dork like myself!

I like first person the best.  I think it's easier to lose yourself in the characters that way...

I agree-I like 1st person better. I feel like I can imagine it better in my head and I know exactly what they are thinking.

I think I like 1st person the best and don't mind some 3rd person omniscient.  I don't care for strictly 3rd person b/c it's kinda boring and feels impersonal.  Like pp, I can imagine it better if it's first person and like to know what the character is thinking.
