Answer 1

You can create a BookDetailActivity like the one that you have created in your source code.

Then you have to implement Serializable in your POJO class. ie. Book.java Just write public class Book implements Serializable and then you will be able to pass a single Book object from your RecyclerViewAdapter to BookDetailActivity via an Intent.

You can do so by using following code in your holder.cardView.setOnClickListener's onClick:

 Intent intent = new Intent(mContext, BookDetailActivity.class);
            intent.putExtra("Book", mData.get(position)); //mData is a list of books and mData.get(position) will give a Book object.
            mContext.startActivity(intent);

And in you BookDetailActivity use the following code to get the object from the intent.

// To retrieve object in second Activity
    if (getIntent().hasExtra("Book")){
       Book book= (Book) getIntent().getSerializableExtra("Book");
        Log.d(TAG, " Got serialized object "+ book.getTitle());
/*
Then you can get what you want from the Book object and set to textviews          or other stuffs.
*/
    }

I have assumed that your holder.cardView.setOnClickListener is working.

Answer 2

Change the RecyclerViewAdapter.java on click method of cardView.

 holder.cardView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
                 if(mData.get(position).getTitle().equalsIgnoreCase("The Vegitarian")){

                   // move to another activity
                 }

                 else if(mData.get(position).getTitle().equalsIgnoreCase("The Wild Robot")){
                       // move to another activity
                 }

                 // continue ..

        }
    });
