I hate them, so the first prerequisite for quality e-reader software, as I see it, is to allow me to get rid of those margins. In Moon+ Reader, it's a breeze. In Kindle and iBooks, getting rid of those margins conclusively, is impossible, which is (partly) why they are unusable e-readers for me.
By the way, "font size" doesn't really mean anything -- it's perfectly relative. A font size of 25 in font A may actually be smalller than a font size of 20 in font B. It's nice that Moon+ allows us to experiment freely, as if each of us were a professional typesetter, and allows us to save an unlimited amount of themes, employing various fonts and specific font sizes ideal for this or that particular font.

What I do with my fonts is actually edit them to fit perfectly for me. The font in the screenshots are Trebuchet with the weight set at 25/20. I have whole sets of each fonts each at a different weight of 5% up to 40/35. I fine Mantano renders font a bit thicker than they actually are while Moon+ renders them thinner then they actually are. Mantano has a problem with fonts size jumps which is actually worse than Kindle Sizes. So I had to make sets that are scaled down 5% smaller to look normal. I also have some sets enlarge by 10% to fit on eInk or phablets.
One thing about Moon+ is the RGB value you can use to set the color of the solid background but editing it a bit tough as the color wheel is way too small to set anything. so I came across this site and have downloaded many of their greys and cremes to use in Moon+
Solid Color Background Textures.
