Unfortunately Caecilia Condensed is not available on the iThingies and since Bookerly is as dark as Caecilia on them, I prefer it on them. At least 90% of my reading is done using my iThingies.
I fully agree with you. I really like Bookerly font, especially for reading outside. But it is a little too light for reading under artificial light, at least for me. So I modified it to make it a little bolder and used Calibre to embed it in books. It's not ideal I know, but for my eyes it is perfect: original Bookerly font for reading outside and modified for reading inside using "Publisher Font" feature.
