How to use React Infinite Scroll with hooks

First time using react-infinite-scroll-component and am struggling to get it work as intended. At the moment, it calls a loadMore method after fetching the first 2 items (which is what I want), but then it loads the next 3 items (which it should only load 2) and doesn't call the loadMore method again. Can anyone see where i'm going wrong?

I am passing itemsPerPage as props, e.g. 10, so I can set numberOfItemsToDisplay as 10, and then when loadMore gets called, I can increment numberOfItemsToDisplay with the itemsPerPage value.

const dataList = [
    { src: 'http://ww3.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvya0u2j20u01hc16p.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvyo52qj20u01hcqeq.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww2.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvz2cj6j20u01hck1o.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvzfjv6j20u01hc496.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxw0e1mlj20u01hcgvs.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww4.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxw0p95dj20u01hc7d8.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww3.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvya0u2j20u01hc16p.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvyo52qj20u01hcqeq.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww2.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvz2cj6j20u01hck1o.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvzfjv6j20u01hc496.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvyo52qj20u01hcqeq.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww2.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvz2cj6j20u01hck1o.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvzfjv6j20u01hc496.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxw0e1mlj20u01hcgvs.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww4.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxw0p95dj20u01hc7d8.jpg' },
    { src: 'http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/mw690/62aad664jw1f2nxvzfjv6j20u01hc496.jpg' },
];

const LazyList = ({ itemsPerPage }) => {

const [numberOfItemsToDisplay, setNumberOFItemsToDisplay] = useState(itemsPerPage);
const [hasMore, setHasMore] = useState(true);

const loadItems = () => {
    let items = numberOfItemsToDisplay;
    if (items >= dataList.length) {
        setHasMore(false);
        return;
    }
    setNumberOFItemsToDisplay((items += numberOfItemsToDisplay));
};

return (
    <div data-testid="LazyList" className={styles['pt-lazyList']}>
        <h1>test</h1>
        <InfiniteScroll
            dataLength={numberOfItemsToDisplay}
            next={loadItems}
            hasMore={hasMore}
            loader={<h4>Loading...</h4>}
        >
            {dataList.map((item, index) => {
                const id = index;
                return <img key={id} src={item.src} alt="placeholder" className={styles['pt-lazyList--image']} />;
            })}
        </InfiniteScroll>
    </div>
);
};

Any help would be really appreciated! Thanks

Might not be the cleanest answer, but got it working by not mapping through the whole dataList and creating array of items based on the numberOfItemsToDisplay value:

const [numberOfItemsToDisplay, setNumberOFItemsToDisplay] = useState(itemsPerPage);
    const [hasMore, setHasMore] = useState(true);
    const list = [];

    for (let i = 0; i < numberOfItemsToDisplay; i += 1) {
        list.push(dataList[i]);
    }

    const loadItems = () => {
        let items = list.length;
        if (list.length >= dataList.length) {
            setHasMore(false);
            return;
        }
        setNumberOFItemsToDisplay((items += itemsPerPage));
    };
