This only happens with books stored on an external micro SD card, covers for books stored on the internal card are only generated once and then saved for next time. That is the main reason I've stopped using an external card and upgraded the internal card instead. I hope they change it in the future so books are treated consistently whichever card they reside on.
On topic, I probably don't leave my Glo long enough to be much help, but I have never noticed any battery drain while in sleep mode. Even when I had a faulty micro SD card that was draining the battery very quickly while reading, the problem didn't ocur in sleep mode. I don't think I'd bother turning the Glo off unless I was not going to use it for a few days or more.
