Solution

The correct option is D Bibliophile
A bibliophile is a person who collects or has a great love of books. For example, "Hello, my name is Lara Rutherford-Morrison, and I am a bibliophile". Hence, Option C is correct. Among the rest of the options, bibliophobe means a person who hates, fears, or distrusts books, bibliographer means a person who attempts a comprehensive account—sometimes just a list, sometimes a fuller reckoning—of the books written on a particular subject., bibliophagist means one who loves to read books. These options do not express the intended meaning, hence incorrect.
