Books with multiple narrators tell the story from different points of view. Generally each new chapter is a new narrator. Sometimes there are two different people, sometimes it's a whole cast of narrators. Either way, there's more than one person telling the story. What books with multiple narrators would you recommend?

Mary-Megan | 10 comments Most of Jodi Picoult's books are written with multiple narrators. Each chapter is a different narrator and a lot of times she even changes the font to correspond with the narrator.

Other multiple narrator books that I've enjoyed include:
Nine Women, One Dress by Jane L. Rosen also has multiple narrators.
Stolen Beauty by Laurie Lico Albanese has two different narrators because it's told through two different time periods.
Flight of Dreams by Ariel Lawhon

Karen (kabby) | 2 comments The Help, Wonder and Gone Girl have multiple narrators, though Gone Girl sticks with one for the first half of the book. I really enjoyed all of those.

Goodreads also has a list of them here: https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/...
