It’s definitely caused by Amazon’s update to the font. I ended up adding the previous version to my Kindle, which displays fine. Hopefully they’ll fix it in the next update, it seems odd that they would edit the font and not notice the bad rendering at lower font sizes.

I’m just glad to know what was causing it. I spent forever yesterday thinking that I had screwed something up in the CSS of the books I had added recently. I even went as far as thinking that maybe I had inadvertently corrupted something with the system and was contemplating resetting the device.
