Why are we doing this?

These challenges are designed to develop your problem-solving skills.

In this exercise you will build a reading list which satisfies the criteria below. Check out the file contents in the directory to familiarise yourself with the starting code.

Acceptance criteria

Here are some checklist-style acceptance criteria for the reading list problem:

• A element is created to contain the list of books

For each book object in the books array:

• A element is created
• The book title is displayed in a element
• The book author is displayed in a element
• An element is added with the source set to the book's cover image URL
• The containing the book list is added to the DOM inside the element with id content
• Books that have already been read have a green background
• Books that have not yet been read have a red background
• The completed list matches the provided design example
• No errors occur when iterating through the books array
• The page is visually appealing

The goal is to break down the problem into specific, testable elements that can easily be checked off to verify the acceptance criteria are met.
