d — Not enough information.
Gravitational potential energy is U = m g h, so you need each book's mass and height above the chosen reference (and g, which is constant). If the books are identical and only their heights differ, then the one at the greatest height has the most potential energy. Without that information or a diagram, you can't tell which book has the highest U.
