Audiobooks work for me too but my insomnia is mostly waking up in the middle of the night or waking up too early in the morning and can’t go back to sleep. So I end up sleep deprived. And with my partner sleeping next to me it is not an option to listen to audiobooks and fall asleep.

My partner never hears it: I use a pair of bluetooth earbuds, but I leave one out of my ear on the side I lay on. I fall asleep that way, with a sleep timer on the audiobook player. If I wake up in the middle of the night, I just start it up again.
Good for you but I can’t fall asleep with earbuds in my ears.
I use a cheap pillow speaker connected into my iPhone dock

When my buds run out of battery I put my phone on very low volume half under my pillow. I can hear it pretty easily, but my partner can't.
