Book summary on Kobo ereader
Is it somehow possible to import books through Calibre on my ereader and also get the book summary imported. It would be handy if I good actually see like the back cover of the book on my Kobo ereader so I know what the book is about

Yes, of course. If you have the summary in the comments and metadata management set to automatic, the summary will be in the book details once the book has been sent to your Kobo.

How do I set the summary in the comments and metadata management to automatic? I don't seem to find that option anywhere.

I often stick the book blurb cut off Amazon titles into Comments. I always edit metadata individually on every added ebook.

Sometimes I add the actual book blurb, but not often.
