``Hi,
I am going through the BookStore tutorial. When I display the list of books, the Type column shows as Enum:BookType.ScienceFiction (key) instead of just Sceince Fiction (value). What am I doing wrong?

And below is the Books.razor code

@page "/books"
@using Volo.Abp.Application.Dtos
@using Acme.BookStore.Books
@using Acme.BookStore.Localization
@using Microsoft.Extensions.Localization
@inject IStringLocalizer<BookStoreResource> L
@inject AbpBlazorMessageLocalizerHelper<BookStoreResource> LH
@inherits AbpCrudPageBase<IBookAppService, BookDto, Guid, PagedAndSortedResultRequestDto, CreateUpdateBookDto>
