At the weekend - on the weekend #2 (permalink) Sat Feb 14, 2004 20:05 pm   At the weekend - on the weekend		  
Dear Thinker,

Both versions are correct - 'at the weekend' is more used in UK English whereas 'on the weekend' is considered US English.
Please be sure to use an article before the noun 'book' in your sentence:
'I read a book at/on/ the weekend.
