Treehouse TeacherHi there! First, it seems you may be missing a semicolon at the end of the statement. But the biggest problem here is that you're not outputting the exact string that they want. They want the string to be "Enter a book title: ". But you're outputting "My book title:". If it's not the exact string they want down to the capitalization and spacing (don't forget the trailing space after the colon), the challenge will fail. Give it another shot with the correct string! Hope this helps!

Treehouse TeacherMaybe. Because if I copy/paste the code I posted above in the challenge, the challenge passes

520 PointsThank You for the response, I'm a little confused on how this is working.. does it want me to do a string variable? I thought the questions was just asking me for the print method. Anyway, I put System.Console.Write("Star Wars:"); but its still saying its wrong I'm kind of lost and I watched the video three times

Treehouse TeacherCJ Doyle No, you simply must use the string they give. They don't want you to enter your book title. They want you to print out "Enter a book title: " to the user.
Take a look:
System.Console.Write("Enter a book title: ");If the string literal is anything other than "Enter a book title: ", the challenge will fail.
