I usually go to the publisher's website to get a high-res cover and complete the missing metadata for the ebooks I buy. For the synopsis, I just copy-and-paste from the publisher's description into Calibre's Comments field, but beware copy-and-paste will sometimes copy a whole lot of markup from the website so best to go to the HTML Source tab after pasting and clean it up. Also remove any blank lines between paragraphs to avoid an extra blank line showing up in the Synopsis on the Kobo.
Calibre will update the metadata in the book when you send it to the device, so the first time you sideload a book the Synopsis will be read from the book the same way the Title, Author, etc. are. To update the Synopsis for books already on the device, use the "Update metadata in device library" function of the KoboUtilities plugin. (This can also update some other metadata that the Kobo doesn't load from the book itself such as publication date.)
