[stylist] Trials of an honorary Dragon chapter 21 (new chapter).

[helene ryles]

Oh well, then I'll switch it back.
I was asking if I had the title of a book in the middle of a sentance
would the apostraphy ' or double quote sign " be use and would a comma
be necessary if it was in the middle of a sentance.

Would it be:
Nadia was reading 'mutts and butts' late at night.
or
Nadia was reading "Mutts and Butts", late at night.
