I think I am getting close, I am able to print out the ID of books belonging to a user but have been trying unsuccessfully to fetch the list of books belonging to a user, from the firebase books reference.
I'm following loosely the tutorial here:
http://www.thinkster.io/pick/eHPCs7s87O/angularjs-tutorial-learn-to-rapidly-build-real-time-web-apps-with-firebase#item-526e9330d90f99661f00046c
and also reading the documentation about denormalizing data here:
https://www.firebase.com/blog/2013-04-12-denormalizing-is-normal.html
How should I go about it if I want to display the user in a page, followed by all its books?
