You'd like or You had like?
What is more common? Both to speak and write. I think "you'd like" is better, but is very difficult recognize the little difference in the sound

We'd never say 'You had like'. It doesn't exist as a phrase, and it makes no sense at grammatically.
The correct form is 'You'd like' as in
'I think that you'd like this book'.
The 'd' is a contraction of 'would'. It's a conditional form, and we use it for offers and invitations.
'Would you like to come for dinner?'

Just to add to SuKi's good answer, the <'d> can be a contraction of either "would" or "had". Here, it's for would, so "you would like". An example of "you had" could be "you'd been there before."
