Hear it in context

Notice where the phrase sounds natural.

I'd like to book in for an appointment with the doctor, please.

A: Can I book in for a check-up next week?
B: Of course — I'll book you in for Tuesday.

Fix the pattern

One small grammar move makes it sound right.

Not: I want to book in a appointment.

Say: I'd like to book in for an appointment.

Say 'book in for [something]'; don't put the appointment straight after 'book in'.
