With the html all stripped out it's hard to know if there's a formatting error in the output. You may have some extra spaces where they're not needed or not put spaces where they're needed.
Also, I can see you have used the $isbn variable twice in the output where it should only be used once.
This should help you with posting code in the forums: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/posting-code-to-the-forum
My best guess right now would be to drop your second statement that's echoing out the isbn again <?php echo $isbn; ?>> Not sure where that second angle bracket is coming from either.
this code that you have <?php echo $book. "(".$isbn. ")"; ?> will work between the li's as long as you add a space before the left parenthesis.
Should be:
<li><?php echo $book . " (" . $isbn . ")"; ?></li>
