The underlined word "herself" in the sentence "My sister buried herself in a book most of the day" is a reflexive pronoun. Reflexive pronouns are used when the subject and the object of the sentence are the same person or thing. In this case, "sister" is the subject who is doing the action (burying in a book), and "herself" is the object that is receiving the action. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Reflexive.
