A bug from previous firmware versions is still around. The steps I've taken that replicate it on my Glo:

1. Start a book. (In my case, a sideloaded EPUB in internal memory.)
2. Power down. Observe the cover and progress stats.
3. Add some more sideloaded books to the library by connecting the Kobo to your computer and copying the files over. (I added 5 EPUBs - again, internal memory. Note that Calibre is not involved.)
4. Eject, disconnect, and let the Kobo detect the new books.
5. Use the Library menu to add the sideloaded books to the proper shelves.
6. Dismiss the newly-added tiles from the home screen.
7. Power down. Observe the lack of cover and stats.

Once I reopen the book, the cover appears as it should - but I shouldn't have to do that; my "last read" book shouldn't change until/unless I open a different book.
