I wish the Overdrive app had more adjustments for appearance. Most of my reading is library books and the Overdrive app has 3 color settings - white-on-black, black-on-white, and sepia. Sepia sounds like a good idea but the regular fonts don't provide enough contrast while the bold fonts are too bold (at least for my eyes). I don't like white-on-black. The basic black-on-white is the most readable (for me) but the white background makes it feel like I am looking into a light unless I turn the brightness so far down that contrast is lost. Also, it doesn't go dim enough for reading in a dark room (if I want to read in bed.)
Maybe someday Overdrive will add more options. For now, I am sticking with basic black-on-white e-ink, even though it does mean carrying two devices.

Yeah, this is mainly my low-light settings. During the day I have the same background, but a lighter text font that's more of an off cream color. It definitely stands out more then. But at night, the one I posted works well for me.
