For me the inability to get into Death Note was not so much disliking Light - I did, severely - but also that I just wasn't particularly attached to any of the supporting cast either.
Had I just LOVED the other characters I'm sure I would have like it more but Light's asshattery combined with no particular love on my part for the others made the story fall flat for me.
It's not that I think it's a bad manga or anything, it was wasn't for me. (And now every time someone tells me that they love Light and he's so awesome I sort of want to thump my head against a wall. -_-; )
