Reading is a delightful experience but oftentimes, we do not have the time to focus on reading text ourselves. For those who lead such fast-paced lives, audiobooks are a marvelous substitute. Many of the best e-readers such as the Kindle Oasis and the Kobo Sage come with Bluetooth connectivity, enabling book-lovers to access audiobooks through their dedicated reading devices.

Most e-readers of today come with Bluetooth 5.0 or 5.1, meaning you can use all the latest and trendiest true wireless earbuds with them. We’ve compiled a list of our personal favorites for the optimum reading — or listening to be more accurate — experience. So lay back, grab a pair of earbuds, and relax to the sound of your favorite book being read out to you.

These are our top picks to pair with your Bluetooth-enabled e-readers when listening to audiobooks. Each pick offers something different and caters to a specific kind of user.

We’re kicking this list off with a bang as our first selection is an all-rounder. You want comfort above all else when listening to audiobooks. Most people enjoy readings and tend to spend large chunks of time at a time. This makes the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds your number one choice. These earbuds are super comfy and lightweight, reducing ear fatigue by a wide margin.

Bose is a master at its craft, doing wonders with its products. The QuietComfort Earbuds push out the best audio quality you could hope for and also cancel out external noise. You’ll be able to focus entirely on your audiobook, free from distractions. If you do want to allow certain sounds to seep through, there's an option to do that.

The ergonomic factor combined with the stellar sound quality makes the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds our top choice for audiobooks. You can find them in four beautiful shades for about $279 at most retailers. At the time of writing, these earbuds are discounted to $199 on Amazon.

The Echo Buds (2nd Gen) are also light and comfortable when worn. If you’re in the middle of an intense read and the battery dies out, you can top up the battery with the 15-minute quick charge feature.

A pair of Echo Buds (2nd Gen) will cost you about $119.99 usually. Currently, you can get these earbuds for half off on Amazon, priced at $69.99 only. There's an option to get a wireless charging case for a little more money. That variant goes for $139.99, but you can buy it for $89.99 on Amazon for now. Available colors include black and white.
