Cannot add any books to Calibre

I cannot get Calibre to add books. Trying to add the .epub book titled The Swift Programming Language by Apple. I get the error message:

calibre, version 3.16.0
WARNING: Errors while adding: There were problems adding some files, click "Show details" for more information

I am running macOS High Sierra Version 10.13.3. Note: I can launch Calibre, I just cannot add an ePub book to it.

Sorry, but I am new to the forum and lost on what I am doing, so posting all over the place.
