Key Takeaways
Short books (<6h) like Atomic Habits and $100M Offers are
ideal for Spotify — fit 2–3/month
Medium books (6–12h) leave room for one more short book
Long books (12h+) like Sapiens and Becoming consume your
entire allocation — consider Audible
Epic-length (20h+) like A Promised Land exceed the limit — use
Audible/Libby or buy a Top-Up
