Booking Through Thursday

It would have to depend on the kind of story. Most of the time, I prefer single points of views, since I like getting into one particular character's head. Other times, there is just no way of telling the story correctly without allowing for many POVs. Take most, if not all, of Stephen King's novels. The reader would miss out on so much if he had just stuck to one or two POV. So it really depends on the kind of story the author is trying to tell.
