It's easy to summarize business books, even ChatGPT can probably summarize all the major ones just from its internal knowledge, but you'll likely not internalize any of the knowledge if you don't read the whole thing. The narrative might not matter that much by itself, but they'll make you remember the main points of a book.

I tried Blinkist (audio book summary service), but after listening to 20 summaries, I think I would have learnt more by just reading 1 book in full.
