I didn't find SICP good or bad, but utterly boring. In fact, so boring that I couldn't bring myself to finish even half of it in 3 separate tries.

Perhaps I should've read it as my first programming book, but that time's long past.

Anyone else had this problem? I'd gladly take tips on how to get over it, since I do honor classics and don't think I'm above them.
