When it resets, the same book/pages can be read and, immediately after a clean start, the memory's available...

(There have been cases reported in the past where it's been possible to create ePub's which always crash the reader, but AIUI, those cases have been found & trapped.)

Yes that was the case here. I though it might be associated with the 'page' of the books since that is when it happened -- going to the next page, but after the reboot (and once I found the right page -- as the current bookmark page had disappeared) it worked fine.

I also just check the "History" and that seems to be intact, so despite losing the bookmarks, it retained the reading history.
