  {id: 1, name: 'The Lord of the Rings'},
  {id: 2, name: 'A Tale of Two Cities'},
  {id: 3, name: 'Don Quixote'},
  {id: 4, name: 'The Hobbit'}
]

compareObjects(object1, object2, key) {
  const obj1 = object1[key].toUpperCase()
  const obj2 = object2[key].toUpperCase()

  if (obj1 < obj2) {
    return -1
  }
  if (obj1 > obj2) {
    return 1
  }
  return 0
}

books.sort((book1, book2) => {
  return compareObjects(book1, book2, 'name')
})

// Result:
// {id: 2, name: 'A Tale of Two Cities'}
