My book is first person past tense. But there are times when she is remembering back and describing what had happened to her earlier, so to keep it clear I need to switch from "I wanted" to "I had wanted" etc, correct? And the whole flashback needs to stay in past perfect? Or can you establish past perfect and then switch back? It starts to feel laborious to stay in PP too long!
Is there a better way to go?
