The narrator’s voice is everything to me if it’s a first person pov. Can’t be overly quirky in a way that seems forced. Realism/accuracy matters to me as well if it takes place in a specific time & location

Exactly this. Bread and Wine by Ignazio Silone made my standards for historical accuracy tremendously high
