Of the mass market books I've checked, I'm at a 50/50 for having ligatures and not having them. I excluded books from the same publisher and the same author for those who had changed publisher (just in case they had some pull which I doubt but eh).
From what I saw, if ligatures were in one book of a series they were in all of them.
I've also discovered the reason I've a preference for smaller font sizes to get more words on the screen is likely due to my love of epic fantasy becasue boy do those books like using small sizes when compared to general fiction.
