No, but mostly because we don't get to know much of how he felt. "Boring" was perhaps not the right word, "not as interesting" fits better. He doesn't do much, and is the typical good guy: always caring, always 'doing the right thing'. Fëanor is a much more complex character, a character which most people either hate or love. When I read about Finarfin, with the exception of the paragraph I quoted, few feelings are stirred (at least compared to when reading the last paragraph of "Of Fëanor").
This is all, of course, IMO.
