Serif fonts help with readability, and are therefore preferable in the body of a book. The “serif” is the decorative stroke that finishes each end of a letter (think Times Roman). Serif fonts are easier on the reader’s eye than sans-serif fonts; the stroke leads the reader’s eye from one letter to the next.

Some prefer sans-serif fonts and others serif fonts. On a forum like this forum I prefer a mono-space font for posted questions and replies for readability and I use DejaVu Sans Mono via userContent.css. Others may prefer a spacial dyslectic font for easy reading, so you can't please everybody.
