Keep reading everyday. Every time I read the bible I pick up something new. There are definitely portions that can be bland, such as the genealogies in 1 Chronicles and the measurements of the arc of the covenant and such at the end of Exodus.
All that being said, I've found that when looking into the deeper meaning of certain parts of the bible (such as the book of Romans) will really make your experience reading the old testament more pleasing because certain things that once had little to no significance suddenly is of immense importance.
The New Testament is much shorter then the old but once you begin to truly study it you realize that it has a wealth of information packed into almost every paragraph. I'm on my 7th time reading the bible and I can honestly say that i d enjoy it, though there are times where I am bored with certain areas.
Keep reading and praying and you will begin to unlock the deeper meaning of certain passages.I also, suggest watching sermons online, one particular pastor I feel is very thorough is Mike Winger. He has a series where he breaks down the book of Romans in depth and it is really amazing.
