    public async Task<IHttpActionResult> GetBooks()
    {
       var parameters = GetBooksParameters(HttpContext);
    // ...
   }

    [NonAction]
    private BooksParameters GetBooksParameters(HttpContext httpContext)
    {
        var parameters = new BooksParameters();

        var queryString = httpContext.Request.QueryString.Value;

        foreach (string item in queryString.Split('&'))
        {
            string[] parts = item.Replace("?", "").Split('=');

            switch (parts[0])
            {
                case "author-id":
                    parameters.AuthorId = Convert.ToInt32(parts[1]);
                    break;

                    parameters.BookId = Convert.ToInt32(parts[1]);
                    break;
