I have to agree, though with a distinct emphasis on "novel".
On the other hand (I'm left handed so I do use my "other" hand a lot), I do enjoy short stories, and occasionally novella length work, written in the 1st person. For me, it can be effective when the piece is short and its structure is simple. Long, complex novel length works seem to become excessively difficult when in the 1st person.
