Personally, I like first person, present tense, both as a reader and a writer. Three of my books are third person, past and one is first person, present (Lethe).
Not wanting to read it is understandable. It's sort of like a person not wanting to eat broccoli. I'm amused sometimes though by attempts to rationalize that first person technique is somehow inherently bad (as if broccoli were evil). True, there are some applications that are more appropriate than others but it can be an effective tool for creating a certain look and feel to a piece of writing.
I will probably write another one someday, despite the presence of so many non-broccoli eaters.
