multiple first person narrative style books.
is it enjoyable? and is the theory better than actual application and should be left in the hands of experience authors, or can it be done well even for first time authors?

ah, maybe I phrased that weirdly. I mean to ask about first-person perspectives with multiple narrators.

The best to find out is to try it out.
I found it fun to experiment with and difficult to reasonably keep track of. Give it a go, s e n p a i.

just give it a shot and see if you think you did well, if other people think you did well

The only time I saw this was in a short story. The writer's language has different first person past tense when used by a man and when used by a woman, so it was noticeable when the perspective changes. Without that, however, a writer would have to explicitly name each character when they start telling the story, and that sounds like a very inelegant solution.

Yeah read that, OP. It's not as conventional as you're probably going for but I think everyone has a distinct voice.
