Did you perhaps install the Calibre module named KoboTouch Metaguide Driver? It is a speed-reading utility, and it causes that sort of thing. If you did, uninstall it. You don't need it for normal Kobo operations. The normal KoboTouch driver is a different thing.

I've stumbled upon that myself recently, and gave it a shot. It makes the first letters of every word bold, presumably to sustain attention. I found it ugly and distracting.
