Describe the feature/enhancement

I imagine it like this:
I have an audiobook running. E.g. a short one that just goes one hour or so. After ending it I want to run another audiobook. So I would like to add it to a playlist/play cue and the app just continues to run audiobooks from the cue.
Every streaming service is supporting this feature. I think audible also does not have this feature so far.
Woule be amazing to see it implemented :)

Added a player queue for audiobooks. This was already there for podcast episodes but you couldn't add more episodes to the queue.
This is in v2.2.3

There is a lot more to do with this. A playlist is going to be different then a queue. A playlist will be a queue that is saved and is specific to a user.
Once the queue feature is stable we can add playlists and implement this in the mobile apps.

You have to first play an audiobook then you'll see it on the audiobook landing page next to the play button. Or in the menu dropdown on the library/home page.
