string bookTitle = "Tom Sawyer";
System.Console.Write("Enter a book title: ");
string entry = System.Console.Readline();

bookTitle = System.Console.Readline();

string bookTitle = "My fav book";
System.Console.Write("Enter a book title: ");
bookTitle = System.Console.ReadLine();
The mistake that you did is using entry. They told you get whatever the user gives you and store it in the string bookTitle
