Having trouble with the .css file coding. Everything I type in the css file it doesn't apply when launching the page

I tried everything from the issues raised bellow . If I try adding a <style> item in my index.html file it works fine but when I insert code in the .css file it does nothing. I will insert my code bellow. Thank you!!!

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>xxxxxxx | Structural Engineer</title> <link rel="stylesheet" hreh="css/normalize.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" hreh="css/main.css"> </head> <body> <header> <a href="index.html"> <h1>Paula Groza</h1> <h2>Structural Engineer</h2> </a> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav> </header> <section> <ul> <li> <a href="img/case-11.jpg"> <img src="img/case-11.jpg" alt=""> <p>Case Selimbar 1.</p> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/case-12.jpg"> <img src="img/case-12.jpg" alt=""> <p>Case Selimbar 2.</p> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/case-21.jpg"> <img src="img/case-21.jpg" alt=""> <p>Proiect case Selimbar 1.</p> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/case-22.jpg"> <img src="img/case-22.jpg" alt=""> <p>Proiect case Selimbar 2.</p> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/case-23.jpg"> <img src="img/case-23.jpg" alt=""> <p>Proiect Case Selimbar 3.</p> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/case-31.jpg"> <img src="img/case-31.jpg" alt=""> <p>Casa Popa Flaviu 1.</p> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/case-32.jpg"> <img src="img/case-32.jpg" alt=""> <p>Casa Popa Flaviu2.</p> </a> </li>

Are you sure you put the css file in the right folder? It shuold be under "CSS", tabbed from the rest of the content.
