Fiction being devoid of the authors point of view is simply silly as every fiction story is going to have a point of view as it SHOULD.

Occasionally I will run into what I'd say is "too much" which means that the message of the story completely overtakes the story/or that it's so blunt and in your face that it's like...did you want the reader to think at all? Did you want to push the reader to challenge anything? And btw, this happens often with books whose message I actually agree with! I read a book recently where I completely agreed with the message, but it was just so...stated without any way for the reader to think that it felt hollow.
