How to easily generate audiobooks from text?


I‘m a big fan of audiobooks since I love books, but am trying to reduce screen time. Given that statistical models can generate quality speech from text and since text is an efficient storage medium, I wonder if there are text to audiobook systems around. Anyone here who knows such a system or has tips on how to hack it together? Like a static site with some Javascript and API calls or some screen reader app maybe?
