How to quote a book title in an essay..

I know this is really stupid of me but I really had to look up if I should italicize, underline, or put quotation marks around the title of the essay in my last post. Searching through atleast five different answers they all said the same thing. According to each answer, you should always underline the title in your writing.

  1. Don't feel silly at all. Many students struggle with this. You may also italicize book titles. Just be sure you are consistent in noting them with only either italics or underling.

  3. I always struggle with that too. I look it up just about every time and still can't remember how to do it!
