I also add my favorite font to my Kindle books using Calibre. I use JSWolfs font
can be obtained here from MR. The disadvantage is that the filesize of the book is increased with about 1 MB.
The new ember is too bold. I will also vote for a bolder Bookerly.
Or better still the ability to add custom fonts to the Kindle.
