1. Use the determiner "a" to say what type of thing something is.
I just stayed at home and read a good book. Have you heard of "Where the Crawdads Sing?" I suggest you read it too.

Oh sounds nice.
I just know the name.
It's novel, right?
Please tell me summary.

1. When interjections are used at the beginning or in the middle of a sentence, we put a comma after them.
2. Use the determiner "the" to refer to something in particular.
It's about a girl who lives in a marsh who gets accused of murdering a young man in town. The townspeople believe she committed the crime but she was later on acquitted by the jury. Do you like novels like this?

Oh, sound good.
Is it suspense?
I'm attracted to the story like that.
I'll search on Amazon right now.
This weekend I'll have time, so I'll read it.

1. Correction of a spelling error.
2. Use the plural noun "stories" to refer to stories in general.
3. Rephrased this part of the sentence to make the sentence flow idiomatic.
I think reading a good book is a fun way of enjoying the weekend. As for me, reading entertains me and allows me to improve my English skills. It's wise to have this as a hobby, isn't it?
