You either let it sleep, or you shut it down.

What you *can* disable is the smart cover feature, which is essentially a wireless power button that will only ever trigger a sleep or wakeup.
If removing the books doesn't fix it, definitely try this next. If that fixes it, it may either be a defective cover or where you're storing it.

I've noticed my Clara (with smart cover and automatic sleep/wake) will drain mysteriously if just leaned up against a large steel bookend for a couple of days. If I place it further down the line between some books it's fine.
