That's not many really. It's bigger than average, but not uncommon. My Glo HD currently has about 2500 and I don't bother trying to keep everything on it.

All books are epub, I don't read comics. They are really long books, I have around 20 that are over a thousand pages long and a few that are almost 2 thousand.

Again, not really that big or uncommon. At a very quick count, I can see at least 40 books with more that 1000 pages in my library. And at least ten at more than 2000. And that doesn't include the paper books that I haven't replaced with ebooks.
None of my Kobo ereaders have any problems with any of these books. I can think of reasons that longer books cause problems, but that is because the books are badly constructed. These will have problems on all devices. Cleaning the books up will probably solve the problems.

Like I said I've tried everything from the kobo forum, nothing.

In that case, why didn't you post and report what was going on? Someone might have had another idea. And my experience that we get lots of posts saying they tried everything and he problem gets fixed with a few posts.

As for the software, I can't even get the kobo to link to my computer anymore, I think something was damaged inside when it fell.

You don't say what model of Kobo you have. Unless it is an Aura or an N905 Touch, you can open it and reimage the internal SD card. Or replace the card with a newer one. Though I would try another computer and/or cable first. I could be an issue there. And make sure you restart the device before trying.
And has something changed? Your first post said the PC prompted to fix the filesystem and the couldn't. If the device is no longer detecting the PC, then it might be damage to the USB port. But, it would also be worthwhile to do a factory reset. That solves a lot of problems.
In any case, the options are limited for a replacement device. The suggestions for the alternative software were a suggestion for if you like the Kobo device but didn't want to run the Kobo software.
