We're not talking about your opinion, but the view that your novel takes as you tell your story. Are you looking at the world through the eyes of your main character, or are you an all-powerful Grand Observer? Are you writing as though things already happened, or are your stories written so that they happen as they are chronicled?
Read this entry from Plot Whisperer, which briefly gives examples on points of view (POV). The concept can apply whether you are writing a novel, short story, or essay. You may also need to have a consistent POV, as this guides your story along and makes it understandable - not to mention compelling!
