Can't figure this out

I don't know how where the "users" input is supposed to come from. Please help me pass this.

CodeChallenge.cs 
string bookTitle = ("Waldo");
System.Console.Write("Enter a book title: ");
System.Console.ReadLine();

The input is returned by the ReadLine call. You just need to assign it to your variable:

bookTitle = System.Console.ReadLine();

:information_source: FYI: You don't need parentheses around strings. Your first line would be fine without them:

string bookTitle = "Waldo";
