Just checked this recently using Asolytics — some categories have surprisingly low entry thresholds in certain markets.

Audible – ~550,000
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)

NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
Literie – ~19,000
