OpenStudy (frizz):

My first thought was B. To be honest.

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

Use quotations marks for: Titles of short or minor works Songs Short Stories Essays Short Poems One Act Plays Other literary works shorter than a three act play or complete book Titles of sections from longer works Chapters in books Articles in newspapers, magazines, or journals Episodes of television and radio series

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

Italicize the titles of magazines, books, newspapers, academic journals, films, television shows, long poems, plays, operas, musical albums, works of art, websites.

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

So you are correct..it is C. :)

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

It is a book, so it should be Italicized!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
