The Protestant Bible has 66 books in total and Catholic Bible has 73 books.

The Protestant Old Testament has 39 books.

The Catholic Old Testament includes 7 additional books (e.g. Baruch, Tobit, Judith, etc.) in additional to extra chapters in book of Daniel. The Hebrew Bible includes the same books as the Protestant Old Testament but combines a number of books (e.g. Twelve minor prophet books are a single book).

And the New Testament has 27 books both in the Protestant and Catholic Bibles.
