I love Georgia on my Nook (ePub). But on my Kobo (kepub) georgia didn't look so good. For those, Literata Book is great (it kinda looks like Georgia does on my Nook).
I no longer have a Nook, Nook went to a relative less than a year after its purchase in 2011. Liked the device well enough, but couldn't stand that side-loaded books had to be in a separate location from Nook books. A Sony came next...

Oddly, I've not noticed any particular difference between reading with the same font on ePub vs. kepub. I just finished proofreading one of my own digitized books as ePub and am currently reading a library book delivered as kepub and I'm not noticing anything at all different in the way Literata Book displays, other than the usual kepub stuff, no ligatures and spaces after em-dashes. And of course, font sizing differences between the two formats.

It may just mean I'm oblivious!
