i have Audiobooks working fairly well in Plex, here is what I do:

1. Store audiobooks as a single m4b file (mine have chapters for when this is implemented in Plex)
2. add a library and select music and point to your audiobooks
3. install and select the Audnexus Agent for Audible it lets you select your audible server to match to make the matching of audiobooks fairly easy if it finds a match, the plugin also tracks your progress through the track (link below)

I find when audiobooks are stored as multiple files for each chapter there is a much greater chance of books being broken up incorrectly

if everyone can vote for chapter support I think this is the only missing feature I need… which is here
