Looking for a way to get audiobooks to listen to. Preferably in a format compatible with Apple Books app.

Probably not the answer you’re looking for, but your local library likely has thousands of audiobooks available for free through an app.

Libby is the service my library uses. The state capital gives everyone a free library card also, so I get access to a much wider library than i would otherwise. Bullshit the restrictions publishers require, like forcing the library to buy a license for each “copy” of a book it loans, but libraries are still fighting the good fight more than anywhere else I know.

My wife listens to all of her audiobooks via the library's online service. She listens to them daily and she hasn't bought or pirated any in at least a decade.

I have sailed the seven seas since the 1990's and IMHO, if you are in the US, the library system is the best answer for books and audio books.

Yes I have Libby. It’s awesome but waiting for months before some audiobooks get available and only have it for 14 days is frustrating.
