Sometimes, putting a book aside is a healthy activity called "cutting your losses".
Alternately, you could "read several books at a time" and "get back to" the boring one later.
Caution: reading multiple books at once can cause interesting bouts of, "But wait, if they can do X, why don't they solve their dilemma by doing Y? Oh, wait, that's a different series...."
