== Literature ==
* ''[[The Bartimaeus Trilogy]]'' has multiple narrators, one of which is first-person and the rest of which are third-person.
* ''[[Animorphs (Literature)|Animorphs]]'' does this at one point, switching from first to third person.
* ''[[Arcia Chronicles]]'' are written predominantly in third person but, starting from book two, switch to first-person whenever [[Author Avatar|Gerika]] becomes the POV character.
* The [[Matthew Swift]] books switch between "I" (when the narrator is Matthew himself) and "we" (when it's the "blue electric angels" that possess him). This switching happens extremely frequently, sometimes even within the middle of a paragraph.
Line 26:
* The first two ''[[Dexter]]'' novels are written entirely in the first-person, from Dexter's POV. Round three mixes it up when the reader gets intermittent third-person visits from Dex's stalker.
* ''This Charming Man'' by Marian Keyes has four narrators, two of whom are first person and two of whom are third person limited.
* In ''[[My Immortal (Fanfic)|My Immortal]]'', the beginning of fake Chapter 39 is told in first-person (the narration style of the actual story), but when B'loody Mary Smith shows up, the narration abruptly changes to third-person.
* In ''Handle With Care'' by [[Jodi Picoult]], all chapters but one are in second person perspective, using "you" to refer to Willow. The final chapter is told from Willow's first person perspective.
* ''[[A Visit From the Goon Squad]],'' by Jennifer Egan, rotates narrators and perspectives with each chapter, including one that is formatted to look like a footnote heavy article in ''Details'' magazine, and a 76-page PowerPoint presentation.
