On the Nook Glowlight (2015) for books I buy from B&N, I use the built-in Georgia at the "thicker" setting and, though I don't like it as much as the fonts above, it's still not bad.
Fonts can render differently with different resolution screens. But the nook ST used the same screen that the Sony used and yet the Sony rendered fonts much better then the nook. My guess is that the same inadequate font rendering engine was also used in the nook Glowlight. I would hope it's been fixed since then.
