But most of what I read isn't first person....

If it's third person, it's pretty likely to be third person limited.

this has nothing to do with perspective but with the narrator's position. take HP for example. we only ever get to see what goes on inside harry's head. Look at ASoIaF, where 3rd person POV is the central element of narrative style. Now look at LoTR, 3rd person, but the perspective shifts through the main characters a lot, sometimes giving insights and limiting perspective, sometimes broadening it, giving an overview of how everyone is feeling.

of course there's also the tab-switch perspective of contemporary fanfiction, which is really horrible and originated from fics that were originally roleplayed and then published as fic. here we get insight into A for one tab, then the perspective switches, and we get - worst case, oh dread - the whole thing again from B's perspective. even without the worst case scenario it's really jarring...
