I think this happened after i upload a book with calibre. My pc is running linux mint and i have latest calibre and ebooklauncher installed.
Any suggestions?

I had this problem too, which was possibly caused by me setting Calibre's metadata management to "automatic management" (in Preferences > Sending Books to Devices), rather than its default "manual management". I never disconnected my reader without removing it safely from within Calibre, so that was not the cause for me.

I tried this method multiple times to fix the error, but it kept returning with the same error after the reboot.
I finally fixed it by uninstalling eBookLauncher (version 0.1.1.04).
To do this, go to Total Commander > Installed Apps > eBookLauncher > Uninstall
I have since reinstalled eBookLauncher, with my calibre settings set as "manual management" and have not had the same problem since.
Hope this helps someone!
