I do not mind if a book has no heroes and no plot. But if an author forgets about the story, then the writing or other content should be damn good.
Eg. Kurt Vonnegut - most of his novels do not have an elaborate plot, the protagonists are average guys (often "losers"), but still most of his books are just great, because the story is just an excuse for him to write about important things.
A boring book is never good for me though. If I enjoy it, it is not boring (even if there is nothing happening). If I do not enjoy, it is boring (even if there is constant action).
