Isaca's CRISC: Review Manual & QA Book Not Aligned

Hello!
I am new here and looking for some guidance -

I recently started preparing for the CRISC, and for that purpose purchased Isaca's 7th edition review manual, as well as 6th edition review questions, answers, and explanations QA book.
After only the 1st chapter, I am noticing material in the review manual and questions in the QA book are not aligned.
Ex: questions in the QA book that are under 1st domain are NOT anywhere within the first domain (chapter) in the review manual (ex: risk treatment plan).
2nd ex: QA book has questions under 1st domain that are not mentioned in the review manual at all (ex: aro, sle, ale...).

The problem: the way my brain works, it all has to be aligned / structured / in order - to be able to follow.

And with this in mind, how to be assured these two books are enough to prepare for the exam? Any ideas / guidance / suggestions - please and thank you!

I used 7th edition manual and 6th edition QAE without any issues. Just power through. Good luck!

I was wondering about that. I just finished the 7th edition manual, but noticed there is no 7th edition Q&A book.

LinkedIn Learning has a pretty good CRISC course

That is correct, 7th and 6th editions for manual and Q&A. Not sure if there is a new Q&A coming out or not, but that's what they have right now.
Linkedin Learning has the CRISC as a generic, also an enterprise level type of a course, but it doesn't really match what Isaca has, and we know we need to speak Isaca language to be able to pass Isaca exam. Unfortunately.
