AS A reader
I WANT to be able to search for books by title
SO THAT I can save them to a database for viewing later
GIVEN an application that accepts user input
WHEN I enter the title of a book
THEN the site searches the Google Books API for relevant matches
WHEN I am returned a list of results
THEN I am able to save individual results to a database for later retrieval or to view that book on Google Books
WHEN I view the saved books page
THEN I am able to view the book in Google Books
WHEN I select the delete button on a book
THEN the book is removed from the database and the page
