I find myself using Avenir Next & Caecelia most often; I don't have much need for a wide glyph set so I haven't really run into any problems with either of them. Sometimes I use Iowan Old Style, FF Tisa or Whitney if it works for that document.

Georgia was great for a long while, but as screen DPIs continue to increase, there are other serif fonts that perform better. While Georgia is still good for most computer screens (since most are still < 150DPI), it can look...odd on modern high-resolution displays, many of which are 200-350DPI or higher.
That's the main reason I don't use Georgia on my KG; it just looks...not quite right.
I want to like Amasis more than I do; I really like the slab-serif design of the individual glyphs, but the flow of the text is just...too stocky and rigid. Oh well.
