Suggested approach: go through the novel page by page and note wherever your “I” is mentioned. Analyze. Now consider the significance. Even if your “I” is barely mentioned, how does such impact the unfolding of the story? Everything in a quality work of literature has a reason for being. It is your job to honor that.
