About a third of the exquisite "Veniss Underground" by Jeff Vandermeer is written in second person... and a third in first person and a third... well you get the idea.

I've read tons of novels in first person. Most of the Black Company books by Glen Cook are first person, often alternating different characters.

The tricky bit is when you have a first person narrative that requires background on another character so you get the awkward sections where another character has to "tell their tale". Meh. These things are there to overcome.
