For the basic challenges they don't want you to include any boilerplate code like creating a class and the like, that is done for you automatically.

The only code you need to type is the exact thing the challenge asks for. So for this task the code for declaring the bookTitle variable is the only line of code you need. Like this:

string bookTitle;

The above code is the only line of code needed to complete the first task of this challenge.

I'd also point out that she ended her line with with the incorrect punctuation, a colon instead of a semi-colon.
