Challenge 3 of 3: We're still using the library database there's a books table. There's a title, author, genre and first_published column. Order all books by Genre and then by Title. Select all columns.

attaching my code - I've also tried adding ASC and DESC to each, but I keep getting a "Bummer!" message. 

SELECT * FROM books ORDER BY genre, ORDER BY title;

This feels way too easy for me to be this stumped.. am I missing something obvious?

SELECT * FROM books ORDER BY genre ASC,
title ASC;

Must have not tried both ascending, because this worked
