I've copied my audiobooks that I downloaded from Audible, to Books on the Mac, and then dragged & dropped from that app to my iPhone in Finder, they all copied over, but some are showing the wrong cover art, which is irritating.

Anyone had this? Know how to sort it?

Apple vs oranges...

I see this with podcasts and my third party player. Turns out that the audio file does not have any embedded cover art, so grabs a "random" one (random in my case is first podcast during that import that does have an image and that gets assigned to all newly imported episodes that do not have an image).

Hack is to import an image to the file, might work with audio books as they are just a different container type for mp4 iirc.

Mine do have cover art, it's just the app is randomly showing one from the other file.

They show perfectly fine in the Mac app.
