Fire tablets are not Kindle e-readers. Amazon dropped the Kindle name from the tablets a few years back.

MODERATORS
 

For most books, the usual recommended fonts like Bookerly work well, but I also have some technical books and light novels, and that old, serious flair of most traditional book fonts just looks… off. Do you have any recommendations for nice modern-looking fonts that work well with e-ink screens?

Try Source Serif Pro. It's my favorite font, and looks great on every device I've used, including Kindles.

Other fonts I'd recommend are:

  • Bitter Pro
  • Literata
  • Lora
  • Linux Libertine O
  • Gentium Book Plus
  • Alegreya
  • Open Sans SemiCondensed
  • Rosario
