Big books are the worst. A nice little 200-page mass-market paperback is no more uncomfortable, in my opinion, than an e-reader, but once you get up over 400 pages or so, or if the book is oversized at all, then they become annoying and occasionally painful to handle.
I still read paperbacks of all shapes and sizes quite regularly, though. I'm currently reading the first book of an omnibus of 700 pages or so which appears to be printed on super-floppy telephone directory paper. In this particular case there is no ebook.
I'd say push on with the book you've got. You'll get used to it.
