Console.WriteLine("Too cold!");
else if (temperature == 21 || temperature == 22)
Console.WriteLine("Just right.");

Treehouse TeacherHi there! Your logic is pretty solid, but your syntax is a bit off. You may only use if/else if/else statements without curly braces if the code that would happen between braces comes on the same line.
You could write:
if (temperature < 21) Console.WriteLine("Too cold!");
But not:
if (temperature < 21)
Console.WriteLine("Too cold!");
Also, an else statement should have no condition. It is what happens when everything else fails. You will need to erase the (temperature > 22) from your else statement.
Hope this helps!
