No. Don't mind Doyle though.

I go by authors rather than books, so it's Zoroaster, Rousseau (for entertainment only), von Sacher-Masoch, Dostoevsky, Carroll, Ezra Pound, Savitri Devi, Bradbury, and Robert Graves.

Choose anything besides Garamond, and you might as well be using Papyrus. Times New Roman is acceptable.

Century Gothic for aesthetics. The one on your pic is emboldened for some reason. Gothic №2 is fine, too, I guess.

>putting serifs on miniscule letters

the roman alphabet was originally only capital letters
when they carved it into stone they made a little mark on the ends of letters to prevent cracking (called a serif when written in ink)

when they started writing in ink they made smaller, loopier letters, which descended into our modern lower case letters
so serifs on lower case letters are a butt ugly historic retrocontinuity
