I personally like a tiny amount of space (~0.75 of a single-spaced line) between paragraphs if I'm reading on a computer screen or a larger phone.

Trying to duplicate the pBook version is also silly sometimes. It doesn't always work. So why do it if it doesn't work?

The main thing which bothers me is when they render headers as high-resolution JPEGs (not even SVG), wasting lots of space. One particularly bad case of this is the North American EPUBs of Brandon Sanderson's books.
Other than that, the styling doesn't bother me too much unless they just use a whole lot of spans with IDs rather than proper classes and semantic tags since I often apply my own common stylesheet to all non-FXL fiction books I read. If I didn't do this, the worst would be when they have fractional em sizes on body text, overridden line spacing, NBSP-based alignment, or fake margins.
