I've tried a couple books that were written in the second person (aside from Choose Your Own Adventure books, of course) and it really didn't work for me. I can see things from someone else's perspective in first or third person, but when a story is told from my alleged point of view, and it is very much unlike me, all I can think of is "No, I'm not".
