You need to create new Book
objects then put those in a new List
:
List<Book> books_2 = books_1.Select(book => new Book(book.title)).ToList();
Update: Slightly simpler… List<T>
has a method called ConvertAll
that returns a new list:
List<Book> books_2 = books_1.ConvertAll(book => new Book(book.title));
