Characterized by or relating to excessive, indiscriminate reading or book consumption; describing the behavior and habits of someone who devours books without discrimination.
From biblio- (book) and -phagous (relating to eating, from Greek phagein). This adjectival form emphasizes the consuming, almost hungry nature of this type of reading behavior.
The word 'bibliophagous' suggests an almost animal appetite for books—like someone cannot help but consume every page they encounter, similar to how a caterpillar eats leaves indiscriminately.
