I know telling a story from the first and third point of view but, I have never done one from the second point of view. Is that like someone else telling their character's story thoughts, dialogue? I usually feel comfortable doing my stories in the third point of view. I guess you can call it a comfort zone. I'm sure everyone has a comfort zone and a point of view they like writing from more. I did attempt writing as If i was telling it from 1st pov but, it felt odd to me. What is different about the second point of view from the first, and the third point of view?

I once found a book that was entirely in the second person but I didn't buy it and can't remember the title for the life of me.

A story told entirely in the second person would be where the narrator was saying what YOU did. A good premise would be you waking up with amnesia and someone by the hospital bed telling you your life story, trying to bring back the memories.

I can’t think of a good tagline so this will have to do. Suggest a better one for me?
