Name Error with will_paginate

I'm trying to use will_paginate and have done everything listed in the github installation/use instructions, but I'm getting a NameError when I try to load the page:

uninitialized constant BooksController::Books

In my Gemfile I have:

gem 'will_paginate', '~> 3.1.0'

In my controller I have: 

def index
        #paginate books, have 10 per page
        @books = Books.paginate :page => params[:page], :per_page => 10
    end

And in my index.html.erb, I have added:

<%= will_paginate @books %>

Has anyone encountered this? I've run bundle install, and the gem appeared to be installed.

Use like this @books = Book.paginate :page => params[:page], :per_page => 10

Model name should not be plurals
