You're doing great! It's just that challenges require you to follow instructions to the letter- You left out a space at the end of your string. It simply wants it there so that the user's input won't be pushed up against the colon. Take a look:

System.Console.Write("Enter a book title: ");  //note the space between the colon and the closed parentheses

Hope this helps! :smiley:
