Authors-Readers Connect discussion

I have a chick-lit with several povs, one of them the boyfriend's pov. My betas were mixed. The women betas were all adamant to not have a male pov in a chick-lit, whereas a male beta loved to see the boyfriend's pov.

Anyone have thoughts on this?

The majority rules if you want to go by what the readers want versus what you want in your story.

I say write it the way you want it. It's your book! Also, a he said/she said isn't a bad idea. That being said, a typical chick lit or rom-com is usually the woman's POV, but that doesn't mean you can't change it up.

Thanks for the responses. It's always a lot to think about when the betas tell you something you didn't consider.
