I'm with Blossom a few pages back - some books just need a good, old fashioned font. I wouldn't mind a 'bad typeset on cheap paperstock' font for Jim Thompson novels.
I use a paperback texture background to read on and really black fonts. I've yet to find that actually comes close to stamped paperback look but it's good enough for me.
