How do I adjust font size on Apple Books?

The print on my recently purchased Apple book is too small to read and I can’t adjust it. It was 18 dollars so I am very disappointed.

Apple Books reader font size too large Ever since I updated my iPhone 12 Pro Max to iOS 17.2, the font size adjustment settings on my Books app got too large, to the point that the setting with the smallest font size is still TOO large

Unable to adjust the appearance on a purchased book I recented purchased the new Barbara Kingsolver book, "Demon Copperhead". When my wife started to read it the font is too small and in a style that is hard to read. It can only be displayed as black on white. When we click on the Adjust Appearance icon the only choice that is offered is brightness. There is no selection of fonts or background tone, we can't adjust the size of the print. Since it is a bestseller I expected it to be a full-featured epub. Is there some way to unlock these adjustments? This flaw appears in both Books for iOS and on the Mac.

Is this a problem with just this one book?

It’s just the one book. I already tried deleting and reinstalling the app. Thanks for info on refund.
