One thing I've noticed as of late is this new fad of light - colored print
on a white background, I've been gifted with several nice books lately that
are virtually unreadable, much of the pages consist of light orange or
yellow or pink print on white background pages...

It's hassle enough to sometimes read, but this makes it all the much more
difficult...
