So apparently downloading the new Calibre has broken my books, my database, everything.
Getting the same error:
calibre, version 7.22.0

What I do to be safe is I use calibre with Kobo Utilities. I have Kobo Utilities backup the database. So if it was to become corrupt for some reason, I can restore the latest backup. I only once had a problem that was user error.
Are you making sure you properly eject your Kobo? Before I connect to the computer, I go to the home screen. I then connect. When I eject, I wait until I am back at the home screen after the importing is done (If I am adding books).
I agree 100% with @chaley. I've had a Kobo since The end of November 2014 and I find them to be highly reliable.
