Removing Audible books from Apple Watch

Hi. I passed some of my Audible books over to my Apple Watch Series 3 and enjoyed listening to them from there, via my Airpods. I am trying to remove read books from my watch now and cannot find a way to do it. Can anyone advise what I should do? Do I remove the book via the phone or watch? Does the watch need to be on a charger etc for such an action to be undertaken? Any advice gratefully received.

I am also using Audible on my Apple Watch. I have not deleted one of those Apple Watch resident books yet, but it is my understanding that you use the 3D Touch to bring up an action menu on your Apple Watch inside the Apple Watch Audible app, it will list 4 actions, the last being "Delete." You might try that approach.

Although I love the option of having Audible books on my watch, I have seen a few hiccups. First, it takes patience to get the transfer to work. Turning on Do Not Disturb before trying seems to help, but that may be coincidence. Second, many buttons on the Apple Watch app are unlabeled. I think I have figured them all out, but it would be helpful if they were easily read with VoiceOver. Third, when transferring books to my Apple Watch, I cannot find an indicator of how well the transfer is going. I have read on the Web that there is a visual indicator, but I cannot find it. I have reported some of my observations to Audible and am hopeful that we will see a tighter, more accessible app, soon.
