The Glo for some reason objects to <p> tags in general in the details page.
The paragraph problem is
not with your program, it's the way the Glo firmware shoves too much space between the paragraphs on the reader in the book details display. For some reason known only to Kobo, it sticks 2 or 4 blank lines between paragraphs when the <p> tags are used (it's difficult to tell on the reader how many lines), but when two <br> tags are used, only *1* blank line shows up between paragraphs. It makes no sense.
I use bold text because the font size in the details page are so freaking small that I can't read it properly unless it's bold (a few firmware updates ago they decided to make the font very small, again, for reasons known only to Kobo programmers). I've tried using <h4> tags, but that also adds too much space between lines. Instead of this (using <br><br>):
Quote:
The quintessential novel of the Lost Generation, The Sun Also Rises is one of Ernest Hemingway's masterpieces, and a classic example of his spare but powerful writing style.
A poignant look at the disillusionment and angst of the post-World War I generation, the novel introduces two of Hemingway's most unforgettable characters: Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley. The story follows the flamboyant Brett and the hapless Jake as they journey from the wild nightlife of 1920s Paris to the brutal bullfighting rings of Spain with a motley group of expatriates.
It is an age of moral bankruptcy, spiritual dissolution, unrealized love, and vanishing illusions. First published in 1926, The Sun Also Rises helped to establish Hemingway as one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century.

I get this (using <p> tags, bolded using <h4> tags):

<br> tags make it easier to read, as does the larger bolded text.
