Access in the view the last values entered in the database

Question

I am trying to access the last "Books" inserted in the bank, and display in the view.

This controller function returns the view with the recovered values from the database.

public function index(){
        $books = Book::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->take(5);
        return view('index')->with('books', $books);
    }

The view is like this:

@foreach($books as $book)
        {{$book->name}}
@endforeach

But nothing is displayed (there is data in the database), using {{dd($books)}} I have it in return:

Builder {#180 ▼
  #query: Builder {#179 ▶}
  #model: Book {#168 ▶}
  #eagerLoad: []
  #macros: []
  #onDelete: null
  #passthru: array:11 [▶]
  #scopes: []
  #removedScopes: []
}

I cannot understand why the foreach is not displaying the values, since dd() shows that the object was passed. How can I correctly access the values of the last 5 Books?

Answer 1

At last one was missing get(); to return the data from this collection (Collections). The error is that it is being sent to view an object Builder (object(Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder)).

Code

public function index()
{
    $books = Book::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->take(5)->get();
    return view('index')->with('books', $books);
}
