But this seems like a lot to invest if all you want to do with it is play audiobooks.

Could you do something like copy the audio files to a flash drive/SD card, and plug the flash drive/SD card into a little standalone speaker?

That's an excellent idea, provided the files are numbered correctly; otherwise someone will need to renumber them to avoid playing out of sequence.

Good: 01-02...09-10-11...19-20-21, etc

Bad: 1-10-11-12...19-2-20-21-22...29-3-30-31, etc
