I am designing the interior for a novel using Bookman Old Style size 11pt.

Right now, due to input from readers, I have set a leading of 13.5pt.

Is that too large? I do not want the text to look like an elementary reader, but I do want to privilege readability.

Will a leading of 13.5pt be okay, or should I tighten it up?
