I'm not sure I'm communicating effectively.
I
do want to be able to customise my reading experience. That is why I
don't want the book creator to be able to force me to read in a serif font if I would pefer sans-serif, for example.

At this point, you might be a user of something, but it isn't an iPad/Kindle/Nook/etc...

I want creative freedom when doing so. If a user reading the book I've created wants to override my choices, he should have that option. But that doesn't mean I should not have the freedom to create a look and feel that I think best suits my content.

Which (at the risk of JSWolf making the same complaint for the third time), my ideal solution would be
something like what the B&N app does,
although not with their implementation.
But if I have to choose between the creator setting styles and me as the reader setting them, I'll choose me.
