For people on the go, audiobooks are the perfect way to read books while keeping your eyes on the road. The problem: unlike a podcast episode, most audiobooks are too long to listen to in one sitting. Luckily, whether you're taking a road trip or commuting to work, there are still plenty of audiobooks you can listen to in a single day, and they're just as satisfying as longer ones. From exciting thrillers to swoon-worthy romances to thoughtful essay collections, we've rounded up some of the best short-and-sweet audiobooks under three hours that definitely won't leave you feeling bored.
