Thanks for the feedback, Ken. I'll see if I can remedy the problem.
You can get around it by including something like the following under
Document > Settings > Preamble:
\setstocksize{8.5in}{5.5in}
And, as Daniel pointed out, the layouts depend on the Memoir class, so
you can use other Memoir commands in the document preamble as well.
Best wishes,

I have found your LyXBook layouts to be very good, and I very much
appreciate the work you did on them. The one issue I had, which was
addressed here by Daniel, is the way it didn't respond to changes in
the page size using the standard page size settings... when using the
MiKTek system.
Best Regards,

Greetings, all.
I'm the creator of LyXBook, and I'd be happy to answer any
questions you may have about it.
When I first created the LyXBook layouts, I licensed some of them
based on the purchase of my Microsoft Word add-in LyXConverter,
which converts Word documents into LyX documents:
https://wiki.lyx.org/Tools/LyXConverter
However, I'm changing those licenses to be the same as that used
for LyX itself, the GNU General Public License:
https://www.lyx.org/License
That means you can freely use and distribute any of the LyXBook
layouts (including those that are part of LyXConverter) any way
you please. I hope you find them useful.
Thanks to all of you for making LyX such a great piece of software.
Best wishes,
Jack Lyon

If anyone has information about LyXBook, here is where I found
out about it:
LyX wiki | Layouts / Layouts <https://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Layouts>
So, the official LyX wiki shows quite a few options when it comes
to layouts. Under the section on "book" layouts, you will find
this entry:
* LyXBook <http://www.editorium.com/ftp/LyXBookSampler.zip> is
a collection of layouts from the Editorium
<http://www.editorium.com/> designed specifically for
typesetting books in LyX (novels, histories, biographies, and
so on).

As I wrote in my reply, it is derived from memoir.
