The first time I plug my Kobo in the plug-in will give me a list of 10 or so books that have been updated (that have no changes, they are all 100%). The next time the list will be 1 book. (the same books on both lists, the one, and the multiple). Each time I reconnect I will get the same behavior, first the multiple books, and then the one book.
How are you doing that? Are you connecting, letting the jobs run, ejecting and connecting again? Or one connect and stop and restart calibre? Or automatically running for the first and doing a manual fetch for the second.

Either of the first two should be getting all books. For the last one, the manual fetch checks for the currently selected books. If there is only one book selected, then it would be expected.

If the same books are coming back, then it could also be the preferences of the plugin. There is an option to not update for books that are at 100% in the library. And there is an option to check the last read timestamp. For both of these to work, you need to be storing these values. And it also means that you have to let the plugin do the update. That isn't strange to me as I occasionally have a book I don't accept the update for as I don't want to update the library.

There could also be a date or time difference between the device and the PC. If the time on the device is in the future, it can give some interesting behaviour.

This all started when I used what must have been a bad cable, or connection, and got cut off when plugging my kobo in.
Is there a way I can fix this? Should I restore from the backup?
The behaviour sounds like it could be a corrupt database. Repeatedly getting the same results can be an indication of this. If you have a recent backup of the database, then you can restore it.

I have debug files of both cases, if that could help.
Yes, I'd like to look at them. Either attach the full logs, or upload them somewhere and send me a PM with the link to them. And can you tell me which books are affected. It should be obvious, but, it lets me check we are both thinking the same thing.
