- there should be a semicolon (;) at the end of each statement
- you need a space between the colon and the closing quote in "Enter a book title: "
- when you call a function, you just have parentheses () after it, even if you don't pass any arguments.
- you need to call ReadLine after the Write.
- you should keep your original declaration and assignment of bookTitle
At the end of task 4, you'll have something like this:
string bookTitle = "My Book Title";
System.Console.Write("Enter a book title: ");
bookTitle = System.Console.ReadLine();
