I don't care about hyphens, or ligatures, or anything like that...unless they interfere with my ability to see the text.

For me, if I find myself noticing and being bothered by spacing or hyphens or ligatures (or the lack of any of those things), then it usually means that the book I'm reading isn't very interesting.

So yes...I generally have the font on my Kindle set to Helvetica, and on other readers it's similarly set to a sans serif font as well, but a big part of that is that it makes it easier for my eyes, and I can read at a smaller size. (the serifs can cause what looks to me like a lack of sharpness when set to a smaller size. I realize that I am an aberration, and most people seem to prefer serif fonts--that's fine. Just please don't try to convince me that serif fonts are somehow *better* for everyone.) I can read in pretty much any font, though, as long as I can adjust the size, and once I'm immersed in the story, I don't even notice the font I'm using.

Page numbers, reading speed, page flip, book cover--all of that is nice to have, but if I didn't have them, I wouldn't care. I know this, because I was perfectly happy reading books in plain text on my Palm back in the day, and that didn't have ANY of those features.

Put me on the I don't care bus too.
Can I read the book? If yes, then it is fine.
