I'm pretty much the other way around - Dickens grabs my feelings and doesn't let go. Austen seldom touches my feelings at all. Just faintly, maybe, in Persuasion, but really not even there - I like it because I like Anne Eliott and her story, but it's an intellectual appreciation rather than anything with much passion in it.
