Tried reading the Silmarillion once. Put it down then read the lot. As I was reading the saga of Beren and Luthien, I got it, and was hooked.
Yes, one can't blame Tolkien. It's about $.

Silmarillion was initially tough for me too. I started it several times before finishing it.

I think most people expect another LOTR-type saga, which it isn't exactly. But still a worthwhile book, in my opinion.
