I love to read 1st person pov and even more shunned 2nd person pov as well. Both suck you directly into a person's head and that's often a way better reading experience than more tame 3rd person pov. I really love it as well when the person who speaks in the story addresses the reader every once in a while. Such a great way to shake somebody up. ;p
I try to not dissect each story I read in its parts, but I always remember how much a sorry made me feel. When I write myself I let the character decide. I've even changed a person's voice from 3rd to 1st person pov to make them more pitiable, and the other way round to make them seem more detached (they weren't, but that should lure the reader in a false feeling of safety). :)
Long story short. I love to read all the narrative styles because they can serve this or that purpose. And more often than not an author needs all the help they can get.

To answer your question: no stinkers at all. LOL
