I’m talking about mainly third person narrators in fiction, like for example, “if you have felt/heard/seen X then…”. What is it called?

It’s a “second person” point of view, where the narrator addresses you, the reader, directly.
Unlike in TV/movies, and sometimes in writing “breaking the fourth wall”, instead of a character turning to the audience, this shattering the fiction of a “fourth wall”, in 2nd person, it’s the narrator.
It can sometimes be a character narrating, but that usually takes on a sort of storytelling motif, where a character is telling you a story about what happened to them.
The Deadpool movies flow back and forth between all these things frequently, as an example.
So I guess “The Monster At The End of This Book” would be 2nd person?
