I used to use Gentium. It is not a serif font, but it isn't quite san-serif either. Have a look.

Now I use Ubuntu font. It is san-serif and very minimalistic, but since I have loaded it into my reader I haven't used anything else. It is professionally designed font and has very well tweaked hinting.
At large sizes on computer screen it looks ... weird. You have to try it on reader. It looks surprisingly well.
