Fr. Hardon’s Catechism also comes to mind, and also Ludwig Ott’s “Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma”.

... as for synodality, a statement made about the U.S. Constitution is analogous.
It’s regularly cited that “All laws which are repugnant to the Constitution are null and void.” Marbury vs. Madison, 5 US (2 Cranch) 137, 174, 176, (1803)
Similarly, anything devised newly that is repugnant to the Gospel is similarly null and void. Hold true to the Truth and don’t worry.
