the public's appetite is compared to nonfiction books. The comparison should be between appetite of the public with the _______ of books. Hence, A and B are gone.
Appetite is noun and Public is singular[. So, LIKE should be used instead of AS. PUBLIC should be denoted by its. Therefore, the correct Choice will be E.

Both are nouns ; therefore, "like" is required.

Why they are incomparable? Both represent "something of public".

Can you please give reasons for eliminating all choices?
