Fortunately for me, the wife does the choosing, for the few lamps we have. I just installed some indirect LED lighting to replace the old fluorescent lamps that finally went toes up, in the family room. I'll be installing more on the other side of that room, because I like it brighter than she does. Of course, they are switchable so that the current person can adjust it to their preference.
As far as size goes, pick a shade that has a small enough opening at the top so that you won't see the bulb at your closest approach, and the length to make it deep enough that it isn't annoying if you are sitting next to it while reading.

If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
