Hacks Edit justification?

Is there someway to edit the justification of books for Kindle Paperwhite 2 ? I don't like the current spacing between words.

Books can be displayed fully justified or left justified, but you can't alter the spacing that full justification uses, no.

If you hyphenate the books using Hyphenate This!, the space between words becomes smaller.

How do you change to left justified?

By editing the book and changing the justification in the default paragraph style.

After some fiddling around with Calibre with "Hyphenate this" and and the Editing tool. I then tried converting the AZW3 to AZW3 but with left aligned instead of justified, which seemed to work on the Amazon book but not on one from project Gutenberg. Too bad there isn't a read.pref file you can edit any more. I'm really loving the screen and glow color though..
