          Unfortunately, the Silmarillion is not even as good as being dense like trying to read the Bible. It's more like trying to read the especially tertiary and obscure genealogies in the Bible. This...

          Except not even close to as interesting as the narrative of Genesis. More like the census found in the first chapter of Numbers but expanded for 300+ pages.

          I didn't read Silmarillion till I was 41. It read well then and I can see how it would be very dense when younger.  A bit of life experience is needed on this one prior to.

          This sums up exactly how I felt, I was also in high school at the time. I could not get into this book. For perspective I've read hobbit/LOTR several times over. Love those books.

          It's a must read for Tolkien fans, kind of like the Bible is for Christians. Think Genesis but in middle Earth.
