I have the same problem after my recent update to 17.1.1. I play audiobooks exclusively on the app. The book will start playing after a slight lag and then it will stop and start several times and then totally stop working. Also, the phone gets very warm very quickly with the app running. I have tried deleting and reinstalling the app several times with no help. I downloaded an alternate audiobook reader and it seems to work fine. It's definitely specific to the Apple Book app.
