It would be nice for a span around "Alice's Ice Cream Points" to cause it to use a font designed to look like human printed text.

It's odd though, I just tried a bunch of Android ePub readers and they reminded me why I hate smart phones - seems like underneath these ePub apps are all the same engine and really just exist for no other purpose but to interrupt what I am doing to show me ads.
I like the idead of the handwritten notes. But I really dislike the idea of using an embedded font for the main text. The two sets of fonts you've chosen are really really ugly fonts and it would make reading the book not nice at all. So please leave them out. Also, leave out the monospace font if possible. Instead of the mono font, use sans-serif and that would differentiate the text while using whatever the default sans-serif font is. That would be much better for the reader.
