Mine did

While the length of a book doesn't affect my enjoyment, longer paper books were more likely to be pushed aside to my to-be-read pile...not only were they less convenient to carry but the size presented a mental block that would prevent me from wanting to get started.

I find with ebooks I am no longer deterred by the size of the book and just as likely to read a longer novel as a shorter one.

So to answer the question, I don't have an optimal e-reader story size..in fact having my books electronic makes the size more ubiquitous.
