Well there could be something to the idea of finding the topic dull if it is something that doesn't interest you, but which you have to read as well. I remember reading an article that Steve Allen wrote about classic books and the right age to read a given one. He'd had to read "Moby Dick" when in school and found it a chore because he didn't like the book at that age. Years later he picked the book up again and enjoyed it.
