I am wondering if perhaps using more audiobooks might change this flat reading? I spend time in the car during my trips hither and yon listening to audiobooks. The skilled narrators draw me into the story, hold me captive, take me on the journey. Even though I am adept at reading (IMHO), I still love listening to audiobooks. And even though I am to on a selection committee, I still have those Odyssey ears that make me an active listener, someone who hears tiny errors and corrects them much as I do when someone is reading from the altar in that monotone that tells me they are not vested in the "story."
