Hello, I have been using the Manhattan strategy guides to study for the test. In my latest Official Practice Test 3, I scored a 600 (Q44, V28).
My exam is a month away and I am targetting for a score above 690 for which I realize I need to put in a lot of effort. Please suggest tips on how I can increase my score.

Anyway, I recently received access to Aristotle, Kaplan & Power Score material (mostly verbal). I am very confused about whether I should refer to these books as well or stick to Manhattan only?

Thank you!
Stick to single source.
If you need any help, refer below videos on each topics on verbal by GMATNinja.

Referring to several notes will confuse you and frequently changing strategies is not good option if only 1 month is left.
All the best :)

What section in Verbal are you facing issues with?

I get the most incorrect answers in Sentence Correction.

Most of the test taker ask a wrong question when they start their prep as you did. More important is how to prepare properly and efficiently. Its good that you have access to these materials but i would suggest to go through only one or at max. two, if needed.

Bookswise, Powerscore bible is best for CR, others i don't know. Manhattan SC Guide is best Sentence Correction.
Another crucial step is to practice questions as you go through topics.

GMATNinja videos are great to start as well.
