The 88% thing is just a strange little quirk I've found my desktop app to have. About 20% of the time I click "Sync", it brings a bunch of my books back to the "I'm Reading" list, usually at around 80% for some reason. It particularily likes Beatrice & Virgil, one of the first books I read on the device...

And I'm saying I don't know how to edit the sqlite/random files on the Kobo. I don't see how doing a total re-format will help... Won't I then lose the 100 Classics altogether?

Basically after updating to 1.8.1, there are now a ton of books showing up under "I'm Reading". I want to get them off of that screen, but I don't want to have to open each one and click to the end.

Addendum: The books are showing as "Open". Some of them are also "New", but some aren't. It seems pretty random.

Also, the links you have posted in that comment don't work. They just open to the truncated "http://download.kobobooks.com/firmwa...tabase-1.8.zip", and the web page says "Bad request".
