Does this happen to anyone else, or is it just happening to me?
It's just you?

I have tested a few, including one that is 130MB with lots of images, with no problems. This is with my Glo HD.

Were these books that were on the device before the update? If so, can you try removing one of PDFs and adding it back? This shouldn't change anything, but, it is something to check.

If it is sickel doing the reboot, the device should hang for about a minute, then restart. The light will probably go off before go off a few seconds before the screen changes for the reboot. If something has crashed, there might be a stack log in the .kobo directory. If there is, it can give the Kobo developers a very good idea of what went wrong.
