There is a TypeError in the code for book_list.pug in line 10. I've copied and pasted the code straight from the tutorial and it's returning an error when I try to load the 'All books' list. The other pages for the tutorial Local Library site are working fine, but the book lists page is not. 

TypeError: \express-locallibrary-tutorial\views\book_list.pug:10
    8|     li 
    9|       a(href=book.url) #{book.title} 
  > 10|       |  (#{book.author.name})
    11|       
    12|   else
    13|     li There are no books.
I think this might be because of an indentation issue. Look at our final version on:

https://github.com/mdn/express-locallibrary-tutorial/blob/master/views/book_list.pug

If you use the exact code form here, does it work better for you?
