Storing the reading position is also a common problem with a corrupt database.

You can also check the database with a SQLite browser. Or, if you use calibre, my Kobo Utilities plugin has a check option.
I have similar problems with the covers and I never power off and my database checks out okay with your utilities. This is on my MIni with 2.6.1. I had this problem(s) a while back and it went away with 2.5.1 and now it is back. My ADE numbers go on and off correctly though.
