My position and my bookmarks are there. Kepub also works (bookmarks all show 0%, but they all still work). However, I have other epubs which only have one thing in the table of contents, and every time I close these, the position and bookmarks are lost. Well, it's actually when I open those epubs again that everything is lost. Until I re-open one, the % read is correctly shown on the home screen under the book cover icon for it, but once I re-open it, it loses everything and goes to the first page again. This same "bad epubs" actually caused the device to crash and reboot at one point as well.
For example, I have the epub version of "Cranford" by Elizabeth Gaskell, which I downloaded from Standard eBooks [ https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/el...skell/cranford ] and put onto the device with Calibre. This book's entire "Table of Content" is one chapter named "Cranford". This file exhibits the problem behavior, while another epub with many chapters does not.

Does this problem of forgetting with ePub happen in the ePub with only one entry in the ToC when you close the ePub while in the section that has that ToC entry? If you close an ePub in a section that has no ToC entry, does this trigger this bug?
