Another vote for reading with a serif font (I prefer 14 point Georgia). San-serif is okay for short passages, but serif is definitely easier to read for long passages.

I also agree with using a san-serif font (I prefer 16 point and 18 point Century Gothic) for special text (like chapter header, titles, and so on). This makes it easier to visually distinguish it from the main text, and to me it looks better than having everything in a serif typeface.

Finally, I prefer a fixed-font (I prefer 14 point Cumberland) for non-story text (like an author's comments and other text that stands apart from the story). Like with special text, this makes it easy to tell when an author steps outside of the story to speak directly with the reader.
