Have you scratched your head wondering why Apple would put audiobooks in iOS' music player, rather than... y'know, a book app? So has Apple. Besides a redesigned music app (http://www.engadget.com/2015/04/13/ios-8-4-beta-with-music-app/), the early iOS 8.4 beta also moves audiobooks (http://9to5mac.com/2015/04/14/audiobooks-ios-8-4/) into iBooks, where they arguably should have been all along. You'll also get must-have playback features like chapter selection and a sleep timer. It's not certain when 8.4 will be ready for the public (WWDC (http://www.engadget.com/2015/04/14/apple-wwdc-2015/), perhaps?), but it's already obvious that this is much more than a simple bug fix.
