I have a tip that might help: try coming up with a simpler test case. For example, try modifying the code so that there are only 1 or 2 items per page rather than 5, then see if the bug still happens

I don't know what you saw when debugging, but for me, I always find places in my code where I expect certain variables to hold certain values, and then I check if my expectations are correct
