However, what would "I go a book" mean?
Thank you. There's no problem with the French present tense. It's the English translation which is dubious. I 'want' is a literal translation and it will pass in some English variants, but in polite English I 'would like' (the conditional tense) translates 'je veux' at least as well, and it shouldn't be 'marked' as incorrect.
