Sometimes I have this problem with my Kobo Forma and it usually comes when I OCR the PDF text, turn it into .docx file and then into epub.

What happens is that it opens epub on the cover page but when I click next page it stops for a few seconds and then it returns me to the "my books" menu where that book is listed as read. Which means that it skipped the whole book and went to the end and closed it.

I used to think that it may have been because of unusual characters in the name of the file like ":" sign, and this one had some signs like the apostrophe sign and "&" sign. So I renamed the title of the file but the problem still persists.
Use either the calibre editor or Sigil and install the epubcheck plugin and check for errors. It could be errors in the ePub causing the problem.
