The standard book size is six inches wide and nine inches tall (6x9). Your book will probably be cheapest to print, easiest to read, and easiest to sell (e.g., it'll fit on bookstore shelves) in this size. Larger books are harder to hold, carry, or put on a shelf.
Novels for adults average around 100,000 words, and tend to have 250-350 words per page. Fantasy and science fiction can be a bit longer (or a lot longer, in some cases). I'm writing a book myself, I think a good average length for most book can range between 10,000 to 100,000 words.
