Как перечислять книга название и автор по-русски? How to list book titles and authors in Russian?
Hi! I'm working on Russian homework and I'm struggling to list book titles and authors correctly in Russian, especially in a sentence. For example, in English, you would say: "My favorite book is The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald"
In Russian, I wrote: Мои любимые книги Рассказ служанки по Маргарет Этвуд и Дома листья по Марк З. Даниелевский.
Is this correct? Or is there a more accepted way to do it? Спасибо за помощь!

In Russian we use Genitive Case with authors in this situation - the same way we use it to show posessions. So, basically, it means: F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Great Gatsby" (but note that in Russian you must conjugate both the name and the surname!).
So, we say Моя любимая книга - "Рассказ служанки" Маргарет Этвуд (the author's name doesn't change as the author is a woman and some feminine foreign names don't change in Genitive). However, we say "Дом листьев" Марка Данилевского и "Великий Гэтсби" Скотта Фрэнсиса Фицджеральда as in these examples the authors are men an masculine nouns get the ending -a in Genitive. By the way, the surname Данилевский here is conjugated as a masculine adjective in Getitive, therefore: Данилевского.

No. It's not correct at all.
My favorite book is The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Моя любимая книга - "Великий Гэтсби" Фрэнсиса Скотта Фицджеральда.
Мои любимые книги - "Рассказ служанки" Маргарет Этвуд и "Дом листьев" Марка Данилевского.
