Are there any guidelines or recommendations about document size for pdfs?

No. PDF for preservation and PDF for distribution are 2 different things.
And unless it's being printed, PDF is probably not the best choice for
distribution because it (often) makes for a poor reading experience for the
user.

If it's a novel, there are ebook formats that are superior.
