Point of view is the toughest thing to get right...but there's no absolute right or wrong.
Who is the narrator? Who is the point of view character? In whose mood is the scene imbued?
Think of Dr Watson...he's the point of view character, the everyman observer. But the star is Holmes, of course. A wondrous being we meet through the point of view character.
I'm reading Picture Of Dorian Gray and the narrator stands aloof and tells us what he wants to tell us about the thoughts of the characters. He lets us hear their voices, but not their internal voices.
Then have a look at Harry Potter. The first line "Mr and Mrs Dursley, of number four Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much." That's the Dursley's point of view, their voice, reported by the narrator.
Get that point of view right, the relationship between narrator and character, and you can involve the reader.
