I agree but there have been many books that have typography that made it more difficult for me to read because of my bad eyes. My daughter just decided to read Harry Potter and as I was looking at the first book it reminded me of how many headaches I had while reading the wispy letters. I didn't care at all for the HP typography. I far prefer being able to hack my Kindle with my preferred type font (Arial) and reading with more comfort. Of course, one can't legally read HP on an electronic device.
