PRIVATE - The Official Site

I can not wait until Revelation. Is Josh graduating by then? Hope not. I just wish they could get back together. And, I couldn't believe how Josh spoke to Reed when they were in the Art, place, thing. But Reed had it coming to her, and if I were in that situation I would agree with Josh. How could Reed ask him that after everything that happened? That was the wrong thing to say at the wrong time. -Niya

Posted by Niya on July 25, 2008 at 01:55 PM EDT #

Oh yeah and I was wondering if Josh was still taking his pills. If he was, I thought he was supposed to feel numb. And if he did how could he have loved Reed if he was numb? AAAAAAAAnd I don't think that we ever found out when Dash and Noelle got back together. I just want to find out if Dash is a user and not the perfect gentleman that everyone thinks he is.

Posted by Niya on July 25, 2008 at 02:00 PM EDT #

I totally agree with you Niya idk how she could ask him that after what she did. I love reed, but still it was defintely the wrong thing to say at the wrong time. Anyways can't wait till Revelation!!! Does anybody else think Ivy didn't kill Cheyenne? because my theory is that it was someone else that we would never guess. Idk Ivy and reed are like my favorite charachters. weird ik lol

Posted by Katherine on July 25, 2008 at 02:01 PM EDT #

i think it was trey who killed cheyenne! because he was ALWAYS soo bitter over her and you never really found out why they broke up.-marisa

Posted by marisa on July 25, 2008 at 02:50 PM EDT #

Wow. The ending to this one was great! I cannot believe all of what happened in the book. I too, hope that Reed and Josh get back together. But i also want to see what will happen with her and Noelle.

Posted by N on July 25, 2008 at 06:27 PM EDT #

I want Reed to be with Josh, but do you really think that's going to happen? I mean, Reed already asked Josh and Josh said no. She cheated on him. Can't wait for LAST CHRISTMAS because I want to read more about Thomas! (I really like him). -Jacqueline

Posted by Jacqueline on July 25, 2008 at 08:09 PM EDT #

Yeah, I really don't think that that'll happen but I hope to God or should I say to Kate, that some kind of miracle happens. Like, for instance, Reed saves Josh from some sort of evil(Ivy)and their flaming love rekindles orrrrrrrrr........yeeeeeeeeeaaaaahhhhhhhh........ -Niya

Posted by Niya on July 25, 2008 at 10:37 PM EDT #

Do you know that if you highlight all the comments you can see the names, dates, and times? I know, i'm late.

Posted by Niya on July 25, 2008 at 10:40 PM EDT #

hey wat up srry havent been on for a while but i cnt wait for revalition!!!!!!! i mean i rlly think reed should get back together with josh or go out with dash. i would rlly luv for her to be i with dash but rlly is he the gentlemen everyone think he is? and also if she does end up with him wnt noelle throw a fit? she has everything and has enough power to get reed thrown out. remember wat happened to natasha's girlfriend? srry frgt her name lol!!!!!!!!!! yeah well that was partly cause of araina but still...... anyway i cannot wait for last christmas cause even though thomas was a drunk jerk he was still hot. he also luved reed alot. i no so crzy i should probabally hate him. and i do in some ways confuzling well bye ---priyanka

Posted by priyanka on July 26, 2008 at 08:47 AM EDT #

I agree with marisa. I think Trey had something to do with the death of cheyene. I aslo think reed and dash should go out. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE josh but I still can't get over how he treated Reed in Legacy. I think too much happended for those two to be together.

Posted by Abbie on July 26, 2008 at 09:19 AM EDT #

What do you expect? Noelle almost put Josh in jail, of course he would try to talk Reed out of staying in Billings and becoming president. He saw the evil and all of the other things that the girls of Billings were put through and I don't think that he'd want to see her get hurt. And people keep saying that Josh deserved Reed cheating on him because of when he cheated with Cheyenne. He was drugged people. Reed was drunk but she was still able to comprehend everything that happened that night. It's her fault they're not together. -Maria

Posted by Maria on July 26, 2008 at 11:50 AM EDT #

marisa here again. when will the first chapter of revelation be posted?

Posted by marisa on July 26, 2008 at 01:59 PM EDT #

i think that ivy killed cheyenne... and i hope that reed and josh will get back together but then kind of dont... josh acted like a jerk to reed in legacy, atho she definately deserved it. I love josh but i think that their relationship, maybe, will never re-spark... but he HAS to break up with Ivy she's way evil even if she really didnt kill cheyenne! -Kayla

Posted by kayla on July 26, 2008 at 02:34 PM EDT #

OMG!! Is there like another Maria here sooo cool..Maria here!! But i'm the one that had like a huuuuge convo with Jackie in the other post......I just read Lucky T and Megan Meades Guide to the Mcg. Boys....Kate Pleeeeeeeez write another book.....i mean ur like leaving me hanging here!!!!

Posted by Maria on July 26, 2008 at 05:54 PM EDT #

NIYA?! Hi, how are you!!!! OMG isn't this weird!! Anyways, I totally agree with everything that you said. Especially the whole NICK JONAS thing. OMG OMG OMG!!! Love Him! You like read my mind! I heard you were in Hawaii, im still here in Laguna Beach where you left me!!!! Comment Back!

Posted by Maria on July 26, 2008 at 05:57 PM EDT #

Oh yeah the last comment was from Maria! LOL!

Yup anyways do you like Dash or Josh? -Niya

Posted by Niya on July 26, 2008 at 06:54 PM EDT #

MARIA, omg! there's two of you. I agree with the first Maria that it was Reed's fault about the relationship with her and Josh. For the second Maria, the one that I have convos with, yay! you read Megan Meade's! -Jacqueline

Posted by Jacqueline on July 26, 2008 at 06:56 PM EDT #

Idk. It'd be awesome if Josh and Reed got back together but i doubt it'll happen. What Reed did was just too much. Josh should at least break up w/ Ivy. Can't wait for Revelation!

Posted by Hannah on July 26, 2008 at 07:01 PM EDT #

R u kidding?!?! Josh why who do you like? -Maria

Posted by Maria on July 26, 2008 at 07:01 PM EDT #

Josh of course!!!! Omg! we think exactly alike!

Posted by Niya on July 26, 2008 at 10:42 PM EDT #

Sooooooo..... about the modeling thing, what did they say was unique about you, they said that theyv'e never seen an African American with Grey eyes! I bet I can guess what they said about yoouuuuu. -Maria

Posted by Maria on July 26, 2008 at 10:46 PM EDT #

Of course same ol same ol they said I was the only dark well medium skinned black person there with freckles and green eyes. They also said I looked carmelly.... weird. -Niya

Posted by Niya on July 26, 2008 at 11:32 PM EDT #

Hey other Maria!!! I'm just gonna put that I'm Maria #1 so that ppl can differentiate.....I'm the one that read Megan Meades Guide to Mcgowan Boys and I'm 15....just answering the question haha

Niya, r u on?

Posted by Maria on July 27, 2008 at 02:23 PM EDT #

Yep, so I heard you were going to THE HAMPTONS!!! Sooooo cool, remember that one summer when we were like 13 when we went to Hawaii together? It was like a freak accident. Same hotel and everything!!! -Niya

Posted by Niya on July 27, 2008 at 02:25 PM EDT #

Oh i'll never forget that one, yeah the hotel was goooood, but we even went on the same yacht, but that was all. It isn't that much of a coincidence because our fathers owned the same one!!!! But your'e lucky cause you get to go back there. Anyways, call my cell, I got my old number back. -Maria

Posted by Maria on July 27, 2008 at 02:32 PM EDT #

Yeahhhh, the good ol days. okay so i'll call. Wait isn't it the old cell phone when we lived in New Jersey? Yeah I think it was a 973 number, okay. -Niya

Posted by Niya on July 27, 2008 at 02:34 PM EDT #

Hahah I love how ppl r like talking like nothing about the books lol.....Maria that is like sooo cool!

Posted by Maria #1 on July 27, 2008 at 02:40 PM EDT #

Thnx Maria#1!! Hey, does that now mean i'm number 2!!!! Like always isn't that right NIYA?!?!

Hey that was only once I was 4 give me a break!! -NIya

Posted by Niya on July 27, 2008 at 02:54 PM EDT #

i dont get it...hah

Posted by Maria #1 on July 27, 2008 at 02:55 PM EDT #

yeah, maybe we should start talking about books before we get in trouble or something. So, don't you love that Kate is from NJ?!?! I loved New Jersey!!! I'd rather still live there than living in lame ... LB. Isn't that right Mare!

Posted by Niya on July 27, 2008 at 02:57 PM EDT #

Yeah, LB is very tropical and everything but in NJ it was more homely and the leaves changed in fall. And the snow fell in winter and we took trips to Pennsylvania to go skiing remember that! I wonder if croton is real.

Posted by Maria on July 27, 2008 at 03:00 PM EDT #

Yeahhh, and 5th ave, I mean rodeo is great but 5th is just hommmeeee...... yeah and I can't wait for Last Christmas. I reallly want to get to know Thomas better. He was great and when he died I literally cried. (I made a rhyme, Hah!)

Posted by Niya on July 27, 2008 at 03:09 PM EDT #

omg where the hell is jackie she hasnt been on 4 like ever......i NEED to like kno if theres gonna b a sequel to megan Meades guide to mcg boys.....like I am loving that book its soooo good....guys dont u think that Kate has like a lot of simmilartities in her book? Like Josh and Finn both like to paint and Reed and Megan both play soccer and Evan and Dash r like the same ppl...

Posted by Maria #1 on July 27, 2008 at 03:39 PM EDT #

MARIA#1, sorry I haven't been on. But I'm here now! omg! you're right Maria#1, they are kind of like the same. Kate said that her publisher gets to make the decision about wheather there will be a sequel to Megan Meade's Guide. I read Megan Meade's Guide before I read the Private Series. I can't believe that Kate Brian wrote both of them. Cuz she like killed Thomas in Private. I never knew she was the kind of author who did that. LOL -Jackie

Posted by Jacqueline on July 27, 2008 at 04:51 PM EDT #

The private novels are the best book of my life. I am in love with them! Kate you are my hero!

Posted by :) on July 27, 2008 at 06:07 PM EDT #

Ok, I know everyone says it, but I love these books. My only problem is that I don't think Everyone should be mad when they found out about Reed and Dash. It's not like any of the New billing's girls even Noelle, and they were at Legacy. Isn't everything that happens there supposed to stay there? They only ones who have a right to be Mad are Noelle and Josh, and another thing. Josh is against all the Drama of Billings, but Ivy practically has Drama written on her forehead. It would be like him dating the essence of billings, but without the billings! I'm so confused. I need a new book for clarification.

Posted by Victoria Woodcock on July 27, 2008 at 06:38 PM EDT #

Okay. First off let me say, I LOVE these books. I first found them when I was shopping with my mom =], like a week ago. She bought the whole series minus Ambition (it wasn't at the store). I fell in love with them. I've finshed every book in the PRIVATE series, in less than a week. Okay, now anyway. I CANNOT wait til the next one comes out. And I totally agree with the first comment on this page written by Niya. Josh & Reed are like meant for eachother. I am so hoping they get back together. But I'm not sure it'll happen (either way i'll still love the books=]). And I can't wait for the next book to see what happens to Reed now that she has lost everything. I know the next book will only get better.

Posted by Nicole on July 27, 2008 at 09:43 PM EDT #

Omg! I love These books. They are definitly gifts of the gods (lol). I live in Holland now but am going to Canada. It was the day before we left that Ambition was comin out and i had to get it (they dont have it in holland.) Only just my luck we couldn't find. Turns out it was still stored in the boxes. So there was a lady nice enought to get one out for me. Thank god. Now I really hate what happend. I need to now whats gonna happen. I dont really care if Reed ends up with Josh or Dash. And what the hell is this im hearing about thomas in last christmas. I dont get it:S

Posted by Yasmin on July 28, 2008 at 07:36 AM EDT #

I can't wait until the rest of the books come out! But, didn't Kate Brian say that the Private series would kinda end and Privilege would start? Then what is this Paradise Lost? It says on amazon that it is Private book #9 but it also says that it is for younger kids, ages 9-12 when all the other books are for young adult... Link is below: http://www.amazon.com/Paradise-Lost-Private-Book-9/dp/1416958843/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1217258425&sr=1-11

Posted by Jacqueline on July 28, 2008 at 01:20 PM EDT #

OMG! I can't wait until Revelation! I really hope Josh and Reed get back together. But i don't think that it'll happen :( (ocgirl223@aim.com)

Posted by Lauren on July 29, 2008 at 01:05 AM EDT #

OMG! I love these books!! Really can't wait until Revelation! I really want Josh and Reed to get back together. Like everyone else!! I kinda don't think that will happen. I think someone probably put something in Reed's drink. I'm not sure. I really hope that everything will work out for Reed and Josh, even if they don't get back together. They should at least be friends again. As for Reed and Noelle well I say their friendship is over. God, I really want to know whats going to happen.

Posted by Ambika on July 29, 2008 at 06:27 PM EDT #

josh and reed have to get back together. ivy killed chyenne and so once reed can prove that to josh he will get back with her so hes not dating a KILLER! Reed and josh have to get back together!they are perf. for eachtoher.Ahh i can not wait untillthe next book i cant stop thinking about reed josh and the rest of them its crazy!how could they all ditch her at the benifit like that?!

Posted by Christine on July 29, 2008 at 11:57 PM EDT #

how do you pronounce chyeens name? is it like shy-een or shy-ann or shy-in? ive got no clue and it was bothering me during the books someone answer please =]

Posted by Rin on July 30, 2008 at 12:17 AM EDT #

I'm posting my comment in a few comments because my computer will not let me post it all together.... Did you all ever think that maybe Dash and Ivy framed Reed? You know Ivy may have looked at Reed's computer (when she was there to plant some of Cheyenne's stuff in Reed's room), and seen the email form Dash and somehow got him be on her side (she is very manipulative in that way). It is also a possibility that Noelle had something to do with it, because from what we know as readers Noelle does not get mad at Dash. If I was in Noelle's shoes I would be mad at Reed, and Dash.

Posted by Maddy on July 30, 2008 at 12:30 AM EDT #

continued..... So I think that maybe after Noelle found out about Reed and Dash emailing, and that Reed is now the leader of Billings, she is mad and wants to get revenge. I also think, or rather hope, that Ivy and Josh will not stay together. Josh is way too nice(well except for the whole Legacy thing), and Ivy is just so evil.

Posted by Maddy on July 30, 2008 at 12:32 AM EDT #

continued..... And Reed really needs Josh. I think Ivy is going to get kicked out of Easton (for murder or for some other reason). I also keep imagining Josh and Reed meeting up and "getting back together"; like everyone gets back to Billings and Reed just cant be there because everyone hates her so she goes outside and starts to walk and uncounsiously ends up right at the spot where she met Thomas and Josh, and then Josh shows up, and this whole ordeal happens and they realize they need each other and get back together.

Posted by Maddy on July 30, 2008 at 12:34 AM EDT #

continued..... Or maybe Reed gets really sad and like thinks that maybe if she goes to Thomas' grave she can figure it out(hey thats sort of what Callie does in The A-List); so she calls Thomas' brother (isn't his name Blake or something? I cant quiet remember) and finds out where the grave is; she goes there and Josh shows up, or maybe Thomas' brother calls Josh (because he is worried) and tells him that Reed is going to Thomas' grave and he realizes that he really cares and that she needs him so he shows up there.

Posted by Maddy on July 30, 2008 at 12:36 AM EDT #

continued.... Well anyway I can not wait for Revelation and Last Christmas!! I need to know what is going to happen (as you can see I already have a ton of possible ways the story could unfold in my head). I just finished reading the Gossip Girl Prequel and loved getting to know more in depth information on the characters, and can not wait to get to know more about the characters of Private.

Posted by Maddy on July 30, 2008 at 12:37 AM EDT #

ok final one...sorry for writing so much....I just love the books and have so many ideas of what might happen....I just....well you all know how much everyone wants to find out what will happen.... Does anyone know if there will be like a sneak peak of Revelation posted? Or if they will do another contest like before where they gave like 5 people the book before it actually came out? I really can not wait till September 16th to get the book. I've already planed to go during my Lunch/Free Period during school to go get the book from Barnes and Nobel.

Posted by Maddy on July 30, 2008 at 12:39 AM EDT #

i TOTALLY AGREE WITH cHRISTINE AND mADDY!!!

Posted by nIYA on July 30, 2008 at 11:29 PM EDT #

Oh yeah I just noticed that we never got to find out what that red scar on Noelle was about. In the first book that is all that Kate could talk about when referring to Noelle and we were left hanging. And, we don't really know Noelle's secrets yet. You know how everyone in Easton has something to hide??? Well, we know Josh's, Thomas' Ivy's Reeds'(of course), but we don't know Noelles yet. She is a very developed character and I think that maybe in Revelation we will find out. Oh yeah, and we don't know Dash's yet, not like I care. -Niya

Posted by Niya on July 30, 2008 at 11:47 PM EDT #

the end of ambition left me off my seat; WHERE WILL REED GO? i hope she and josh get back together... but, it she going back to billings? so may questions that need answers... I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL ALL THE BOOKS TO COME OUT!! -DEE

Posted by Dee on July 31, 2008 at 01:23 AM EDT #

ya i was thinking the same thing about Noelle's scar...anyone hav any ideas?

Posted by Maria #1 on July 31, 2008 at 08:31 AM EDT #

Dude, why isn't anyone commenting??? Go awn.

Posted by Niya on July 31, 2008 at 09:41 PM EDT #

Okay, so I was JUST reading about all of the characters on the main page and I think that I might have found something. Okay, so Kate Brian said that Kiki Rosen is very smart and it is the smart ones that we should be watching. She also states that we should keep a very close eye on her. She might want to get back at Reed because Kate said that Kiki was first in her class until Reed came along. I wonder what she did or is going to do. Kill Cheyenne maybe??? -Niya

Posted by Niya on July 31, 2008 at 10:04 PM EDT #

Hm...I don't know about Noelle's scar. Kiki Rosen...I don't think so. But maybe I'm wrong. Let me check it out. -Jacqueline P.S. Can't wait for Breaking Dawn

Posted by Jacqueline on July 31, 2008 at 11:31 PM EDT #

I don't think so either, but you never know.

Posted by Niya on August 01, 2008 at 02:02 PM EDT #

i totally agrree with that one girl that maybe josh and reed get back together at thomas's grave but w.e. as long as they get back together they have to! seriously need to! and i also think we need to learn more about noelle and her secrets esp. cause she knows everything about everyone 'most of the time' and also reed needs stop acting weird she was deff changing and starting to be snooty or thats what i think -erin

Posted by erin on August 01, 2008 at 03:24 PM EDT #

Erin wat r u? an angel or something? in my personal (and extremely important) oppinion Reed was sooo not acting snooty but i dont get y Reed isnt just going to Noelles file and Reading about her past and shit i mean then she could find out about that scar couldnt she?

Posted by Maria #1 on August 01, 2008 at 04:56 PM EDT #

Erin wat r u? an angel or something? in my personal (and extremely important) oppinion Reed was sooo not acting snooty but i dont get y Reed isnt just going to Noelles file and Reading about her past and stuff i mean then she could find out about that scar couldnt she?

Posted by Maria #1 on August 01, 2008 at 04:57 PM EDT #

haha i mean she was snooty the way she was treating josh. it wasnt till after that they broke up when she was more herself she was kinda mean when ditching him for noelle she should have put him first based on the way he treated her vs. noelle and i think she should read about noelle too p.s. whats your name & how do you pronounce chyeene ahaha -erin

Posted by erin on August 01, 2008 at 11:25 PM EDT #

Dude, what is up with the language and bad grammar?!?! Can't we all just mellow out and get along??? Yeah and by -A the last commenter, do you mean as in like that secret person on the pretty little liars series? Does that mean you are a girl? 'Cause you sounded like a dude. No offense. And Maria, just let it go. That happened to me before. -Niya

Posted by Niya on August 01, 2008 at 11:37 PM EDT #

does anyone think that she will let us read the next books first few chaps. like she did before?

Posted by Christy on August 02, 2008 at 12:22 AM EDT #

Ya she probbably will.... I'm actually like freaked out by this aggressive grl named u kno....? ya not liking her that much....anyways i am 15 if u wanna kno.....omg mayb i shouldnt hav told u that mayb ur like one of those rapests who like stalk teens on the comp....hehehehe p.s i hav a life go rape little girls -toodles<3

Posted by Maria #1 on August 02, 2008 at 07:36 PM EDT #

soooooooo... there really isn't anything else to blog about becauseI think we've already said it all, I'll just have to wait until the next book.

Posted by Niya on August 03, 2008 at 03:28 PM EDT #

Wait, I really DONT think Ivy killed Cheyenne. It can't be someone who we expect

Posted by Niya on August 03, 2008 at 03:43 PM EDT #

OMG!I'm in love with these series! My favorite character is Josh! I hate how everyone thinks he such a bad guy! He was only mean to Reed when she tried to talk to him, because she jsut cheated on him! Ya he cheated on her, put Cheyenne gave him a dape rape pill! It wasn't his fault! But it wasn't really Reed's fault for cheating on him because when your drunk like Reed was, you loose your sense of judgement! They need to get back together! I'm like suffering with them being apart!! anyways, I totally agree with Maddy, about the whole Reed going to Thomas's grave! And then Josh being there too! I would like cry! lol! And about the whole Pardise Lost, is it really a 9th private book? Or just a book for younger readers? I hope it's just some mistake or something, but whatevs. Josh and Ivy need to break up, it's like him dating Ariana or someone like that, Ivy killed Cheyenne. Or that's atleast what Reed thinks. Maybe she'll try to warn him but he doesn't listen. Then maybe Ivy is finally arrested for killing cheyenne and Josh has to go thanks Reed. And they get back together! idk but the worst thing that could possibly happen, is like it's the end of the year, Josh is graduating and he finally talks to Reed. And they agree on staying friends. That would be HORRIBLE!!! I would abosultly die!!!!! I wish that the private series didn't end at Revelation! I hope it goes on forever!!! :) -Lauren

Posted by Lauren on August 03, 2008 at 04:57 PM EDT #

I love these books! They are like the best ever! And I totally agree with Maddy about Josh and Reed going to Thomas' grave and then getting back together! That would be great! Or maybe Reed will warn Josh about Ivy being a murder, and then when she is finally arrested, Josh will thank Reed and then they will realize they need each other!!! But the worst thing that could happen in that, Josh is graduating and Reed goes up to talk to him. Then they agree that they should be friends, and only that.I would just absolutely die!!! I love them together!!

Posted by Lauren on August 03, 2008 at 05:02 PM EDT #

First off, and I don't mean to be rude, but, all the drama is stupid. It's not worth it. Its the internet. If you want to get worked up, get worked up about the book, not each other. I would like to find out more about Noelle's scar too. I know I posted all of those possible outcomes before, but once I got to thinking, and saw the description of Revelation, I realized that Kate Brian loves to blindside her readers. I think she is going to do something that no one will see coming. I think that she knows what her readers want to happen and will write something opposite. If anyone finds any sort of "first look" on Revelation please post where to find it!

Posted by Maddy on August 03, 2008 at 10:01 PM EDT #

I just finished reading, "Legacy" and I'm starting ambition in just a few minutes. I've read these books they whole summer while not on the runway. It's such a coinsedense that my name is Kiran too and I model too!! Wierd huhh? haha. After the prequel does that mean the private series will be done and privellige will start? please answer my question!!!!

Posted by Kiran (seriously that's my name) on August 04, 2008 at 04:27 PM EDT #

I just love Josh and Reed together in the book! But reed was really drunk when she cheated on him with dash and he was like high when he cheated on her with Cheyenne so its like hte same thing and they should get back together!! Maybe noelle should break up with dash and start having like a thing for josh when reeds not with him and likes a new guy or something becuase Josh always hated her. Also i really would want to hear about noelles scar more!!!!

Posted by Clementina on August 04, 2008 at 04:31 PM EDT #

I cannnnnottttt! wait until REVELATIONS! comes out!!! I started reading the books in like febrary and was already finished in like 3 weeks... I neeed! revelations!! Must find out what happens to reed! Please tell me that her and josh get back together! Please!! =) I love josh!

Posted by Dalia on August 05, 2008 at 10:33 AM EDT #

Please tell me that Reed and Josh get back together because I love them as a couple and they make reading your books worth it. I will like die if they don;t get back together so please save my life and tell me they get back together!!!

HAHAHA.... I was like the first one here to admit that I Loved Josh and now everyone here is agreeing. HA!

Posted by Niya on August 05, 2008 at 03:41 PM EDT #

I would definitely cry tears of joy is Reed and Josh got back together. But, like I said Ivy did not kill Cheyenne. Kate wouldn't make it that obvious. like seriously come on people. It's gonna be someone who we don't expect, trust me on this. Hmmmm.. maybe it's gonna be Noelle or Dash. When they found out Cheyenne died, they were like, everything happens for a reason. Dash sent it in an email and Noelle said it to Reeds face. Now guys, isn't that a little suspicious???

Posted by Niya on August 05, 2008 at 03:50 PM EDT #

I still think its Ivy. p.s Maddy, i THRIVE on drama LYLAS<3

Posted by Maria #1 on August 05, 2008 at 05:11 PM EDT #

Hm...Niya you got a point. Like at the end of AMBITION, Reed thought that Josh might still be in the burning building and something might have happened to him. But he was fine. (My friends and I were stressing wheather he was okay or not). So, Kate Brian could just be saying that. But I can't think of anybody who would do that to Cheyanne than Ivy. Even if Ivy didn't kill her, she and Josh should break up. I guess Ivy has a reason to be mad because of her grandma but she shouldn't take it this overboard(if she did kill Cheyanne). -jacqueline

Posted by Jacqueline on August 05, 2008 at 05:42 PM EDT #

Does anyone think its Dash or Noelle or both. Its weird that they both told Reed that everything happens for a reason. And we really don't pay attention to those small details. Those are the ones that authors jump on or put there for a reason.

Posted by Niya on August 05, 2008 at 05:54 PM EDT #

Oh yeah and there was a burning building in the end of Ambition?!?!

Posted by Niya on August 05, 2008 at 05:56 PM EDT #

ya i didnt kno there was a flaming building in the end...i never read that part. But Niya what if Noelle and Dash wer just so close that they say the same things sometimes or hav the same motto? ugh i still cant get over that "you know" girl......she was sooo freaky y cant she grow a back bone and tell me her name?

Posted by Maria #1 on August 05, 2008 at 07:10 PM EDT #

Yeah, probably. What if shes watching right now, and what if shes a he??? HA!

Posted by Niya on August 05, 2008 at 07:53 PM EDT #

OMG! reed and josh have to get back together ill cry if they dont :( did u say that there was a flaming bulidling in ambition i thought that was in the end of legacy when growlding or however u spell it burnt down but i read all of ambition in like 1 and a half hours and never read about a burning bulidling?

Posted by Alli on August 06, 2008 at 09:49 AM EDT #

Agreed!

Posted by Niya on August 06, 2008 at 11:49 AM EDT #

I can't wait for Revelation!! Ambition was so intresting. I hope Ivy and Josh break up and Reed and him get back together. I wonder what Ivy going to do to Josh? Niya your totally right how could Reed ask him that. I hope that Kate writes more private books they are really great!! I' m so excited to see what's coming.

Posted by Alli on August 07, 2008 at 10:58 AM EDT #

omg if josh and reed dont get back together i dont know what i will do!! they were the best couple!!! and i like that josh has flaws and isnt perfect. he is my favorite charecter!!! and why ivy? like did josh date her just to make reed jelous? but like i dont think tht ivy killed cheyenne. ad what will happen when josh graduates, will he still be in the books like dash. (who by the way i cant stand!) like he knew what he was doing when he and reed hooked up. and was it before he got back together w/ noelle or after???

Posted by mary on August 07, 2008 at 12:32 PM EDT #

ppl r saying how badly josh was treating reed about billings, and how he was being dramatic and a jerk to reed about it. but i can see where he is coming from b/c the billings girls but him in jail, and ariana killed his best friend and room mate. so wooldnt you be a little bitter about tht to? so lay of josh. but anyways, do you think tht noelle was ever reeds true friend? i am not sure

Posted by mary on August 07, 2008 at 12:43 PM EDT #

also i think tht josh deserves better than ivy. if he isnt gunna b w/ reed, then he shoold at least b w/ some1 tht is good enough for him

Posted by mary on August 07, 2008 at 12:49 PM EDT #

no no no josh cant be w/ anyone but reed ill sob if they dont get back together i cried when the police took josh away i crid when reed saw josh in jail i cried when he had a seizure and was talking to reed i cried tears of joy when he was talking to her after they took chyanne away in the ambulance i cried when josh found them at the legacy and i cried when reed tried to apoligize to josh and ill cry soo hard if they dont get back 2getther iknw im emotional :(

Posted by Alli on August 07, 2008 at 01:18 PM EDT #

Hey i know im buttin in this conversation, but i agree with mary on the josh thing! i do tho believe that noelle was reeds friend because of the things shes done for her. yeah so was mean and rude but thats just noelle thats her character. remember how she treated kiran, taylor etc. she was still friends with them but noelle is just noelle! anyways going back to josh i think he just need time, i wish his time would hurry up but he's heart broken at the moment so yeah w/b ~Katelyn~

Posted by Katelyn on August 07, 2008 at 01:36 PM EDT #

agreed i cant wait i soooooooooo hope reed and josh get back together they have to get back togethter and reed and noelle should be friends again but i want reed and josh should be togetther the most

Posted by Alli on August 07, 2008 at 03:38 PM EDT #

Katelyn, I totally agree with you. -Jacqueline

Posted by Jacqueline on August 07, 2008 at 04:17 PM EDT #

I think that the front page with all of the character's info will be very important. Like the comment that Portia's dad didn't get all the millions from working and in Ambition one guy said he knew Portia from this poor thing or whatnot. I can't wait for everything to reveal itself. Also, I don't think that Dash has anything to do with the whole Cheyenne thing because his secret is that he loved/s Reed. He doesn't seem like a very in depth guy with a lotta secrets. <3

Posted by Carolyn on August 07, 2008 at 08:45 PM EDT #

MARY, I couldn't agree with u more. I hate, hate, hate, dash. I fell in love with Josh. Weird, huh? Anyways, I don't know why josh is with IVY. CANT STAND HER!!!!!!! And, I cried when they broke up. I cursed out loud at Reed when she cheated on him. AAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDD, I DEFINETELY will cry if they stay apart.

Posted by Niya on August 07, 2008 at 08:58 PM EDT #

i know! seriously if josh doent come back to his sences and get back w/ reed, tthen i like seriously will stop reading these books...lol. no, but like i can understand how he is still mad at her, but if he really loved her, he would come back to her. he probable just needs some time to think about it. but about them breaking up, i was like crying. nd the saddest part was tht josh came up too apologize to reed! how woold u feel if u felt bad about what you said to some 1 and u went to apologize to them nd they were hooking up w/ ur best friend!!!!

Posted by mary on August 08, 2008 at 09:35 AM EDT #

nd i forget who, but some1 said tht it was probable dash or noelle tht killed cheyanne b.c they were both like, everything happens 4 a reason. but then again, noelle was reading dash's e-mails so thts prob why she said it to reed, but i am still suspiciousof y they woold take it so lightly. but noelle was enemys w/ cheyanne.

Posted by mary on August 08, 2008 at 09:42 AM EDT #

allie, bout the reed and noelle thing and them being friends again. i dont think tht noelle will just forget about the whole dash and reed thing to easily. i think tht she will be really mad about it for a while. as much as i want them to be best friends again, i dont think it will happen in the near future. but speaking of being good friends, i wonder if constance and marc will still be mad at reed about the legacy thing. tht really surprised me when they just kinda turned on her.

Posted by mary on August 08, 2008 at 09:49 AM EDT #

does any1 know if revelation is gunna b the last book? or is there more books after. god i hope there are

Posted by mary on August 08, 2008 at 10:06 AM EDT #

Yes Revelations will be the last in the Private series but then there will be last christmas and privilage to look forward to YAY!

Posted by Molly on August 08, 2008 at 11:26 AM EDT #

NO WAY!!!! revelation is the last book!!!! Great, now im gonna cry all over again. why is everyone doing this???? Just like the clique series. FREAK.

Posted by Niya on August 08, 2008 at 12:11 PM EDT #

No reavlations is not the last book! The next books is called Paradise Lost you can find it on the publisher webiste simonsays.com. According to Kate we will have at least 15 books. So no need to worry, we will get a lot more Reed.

Posted by Amber on August 08, 2008 at 12:56 PM EDT #

omg! yay!!! more books!!! i was like panicking! but wow, 15! thts alot! but of course i am not saying tht in a bad way. lol

Posted by mary on August 08, 2008 at 03:50 PM EDT #

ok, so i was like thinking of my favorite parts of the books, and i have to say tht probably 1 of my favorite part of the series was when josh didnt take his pills and it was rite before he got arrested and he was like yelling and then all nice. idk y but i loved tht part. i really love any part w/ josh tho. lol....this was kinda random but

Posted by mary on August 08, 2008 at 03:59 PM EDT #

so, kate mite b from NJ like some of u, but i live like 10 minutes away from easton. so ha! it really nice!...again really random like the last 1, but

Posted by mary on August 08, 2008 at 04:07 PM EDT #

Wait is easton a real place or not?

Posted by Ally on August 08, 2008 at 04:45 PM EDT #

i dont think so but yay! more private books!!!

Posted by Alli on August 08, 2008 at 05:23 PM EDT #

by that i mean i dont think that easton is a real place

Posted by Alli on August 08, 2008 at 05:32 PM EDT #

Really theres going to be more private book?!?!(yes!) I can't wait! Wow 15? thats long..not in a bad way but thats awesome!! I really hope reed and josh get back together if they don't ill cry like everyone else! I just thought of something...i'm not sure if I'm right but...didn't reed say in the legacy that someone probably put sumthing in that pink drink she had? I'm not sure if I'm right this is out of my head...! Anyway...I hope there really is 15 books to this series!!

Posted by Ally on August 08, 2008 at 05:40 PM EDT #

omg! i just thought of someting do u think ivy would be so desprate to hurt reed that she kills josh. god i hope not btw if u go to the site and www.simionsays.com it says that reed is kicked out of billings still dosent hvae her boyfriend and ppl think that she killed chyanne and also that reed will do w/e it takes to get her life back and find the real killer

Posted by Alli on August 08, 2008 at 05:57 PM EDT #

Yeah i just went on that! I wasnt surprised to read that reed was kicked out of billings. Yeah whoever messed with nolloe's boyfriend gets kicked out!! How can ppl be so thick? why would she kill chyanne, i know they had their dissagreement, but comon! but w/e i just hope that there will be like this awesome twist!

Posted by Ally on August 08, 2008 at 06:08 PM EDT #

no reed didnt really kill chyanne

Posted by Alli on August 08, 2008 at 06:14 PM EDT #

I know that! But in the book, like they were saying, reed killed chyanne. Ppl in easton are very thick. if you get me.. I wondering if some ppl will stick with reed, but act like they hate her in front to nolloe? I just thought of something else...remember when taylor im reed...we really never got to the bottom of that. What really happened to Taylor? If Kate did get to the bottom of that then, i must of missed it.

Posted by Ally on August 08, 2008 at 06:21 PM EDT #

no kate didnt but she should and i really want reed and josh to get back together

Posted by Alli on August 08, 2008 at 06:25 PM EDT #

everyone on this earth wants them to get back together. But if josh stays with ivy..even if she is not the killer. Josh got to get his head together and see that ivy is not the one! I know that Josh still has feelings for reed!! When she was flirting with boys, you can see josh's face with anger.

Posted by Ally on August 08, 2008 at 06:29 PM EDT #

i knw i wnat them to get back sooo much i knw that josh still has fellings for reed and we all knw that reed has fellings for josh

Posted by Alli on August 08, 2008 at 06:42 PM EDT #

Of course she does! why else would she want to find the killer, other than to clear her name! God the book needs to come out! its making me anxious!!! i have a question is privilege part of the Private series? is it from ariana point of view when reed came to easton?

Posted by Ally on August 08, 2008 at 06:53 PM EDT #

15 books? I read on alloyentertainment.com that it was going to be an 11 book series. ALLY, I'm pretty sure taht PRIVILEGE is Ariana's point of view before Reed came ot Easton. It's Ariana's junior year. That mean we get to read about Thomas probably. Of course everyone wants Josh and Reed to get back together. MARY, my friends and I like the part when Thomas gave Reed the bus token thing and when Thomas and Reed danced and said,"Tell me your naughty thoughts." LOL -Jacqueline

Posted by Jacqueline on August 08, 2008 at 08:16 PM EDT #

Oh my gosh, I absolutely can't wait until the next book! I wish it was already out! I hope Reed and Josh end up togther. Ivy bugs me so much and she doesn't deserve Josh...

Posted by Adriana on August 08, 2008 at 09:18 PM EDT #

Privlege is a series about what would happend if Ariana escpaded. You get that from the inside of Ambition or Legacy. The only one set from Arianan junior year is last christmas. Someone I know emailed Kate and that is where the 15 books come from. I think we will get more than 11 because why would Kate only a 2 book arc that would be a lot to cover in 2 books. I believe that if the books keep doing so well Kate will keep writing them.

Posted by Amber on August 08, 2008 at 09:25 PM EDT #

OMG, Yeah Josh was angry when Reed was flirting with that guy. Whats his name. She was typing her number in his phone. Josh like ran off and left Ivy. I LOOOVED that part. OMG:)

Posted by Niya on August 08, 2008 at 09:46 PM EDT #

NO, that site hasss to be wrong. They are going to get back together. My heart is hurting at the thought of them being apart. NOOOOOO. Well anyways I have to go now. Its time to get my daily fix of the JoBro's. HAHAHA.

Posted by Niya on August 08, 2008 at 09:49 PM EDT #

AMBER, yea my mistake. I was mixed up with LAST CHRISTMAS. -Jacqueline

Posted by Jacqueline on August 08, 2008 at 10:35 PM EDT #

No worries Jacqueline, with all the books Kate has coming out this fall, they are starting to all get mixed together. I am just happy that we are going to get more books! I can not wait to see what happens next.

Posted by Amber on August 08, 2008 at 10:55 PM EDT #

Niya, i agree with you, when Josh left ivy!! i was just laughing at ivy! That's when reed should of relized that josh cares about reed! (Still) Well if there is only 11 or 15 books! i just hope that there will be more books!! i know theres a lot to put in!! For example, the reason why taylor IM reed!! Love the books!!-Ally

Posted by Ally on August 09, 2008 at 12:43 AM EDT #

ok, so easton is a real place just to clear that up. but omg yah when josh stormed out of the cafeteria and left ivy, i was like, ha! ivy, in ur face! and i really dont know what i will do, if josh and reed dont get back together! we shoold like protest or something. like if kate doesnt put them together, then we will stop reading the books...lol. (well we woold still read them, but only in private of course)......lol

Posted by mary on August 09, 2008 at 07:18 AM EDT #

ok, guys, this is wat ot says bout revelation on simonsays.com

Posted by mary on August 09, 2008 at 07:25 AM EDT #

The biggest mystery of all...and Reed is dying to learn the truth.Two months after Cheyenne Martin was found dead in her Billings House dorm room, exclusive Easton Academy is rocked by another stunning revelation: Cheyenne was murdered. No one knows who the killer is, but everyone agrees that Reed Brennan, who took over Cheyenne's role as Billings's president, gained the most from her death. Once the most powerful girl on campus, Reed is now powerless to stop her classmates' accusing whispers. Rumors begin to swirl that she killed Cheyenne.And just like that, Reed is kicked out of Billings.She's lost everything -- her friends, her home, her boyfriend -- and Reed knows the only way to get it all back is to figure out who really murdered Cheyenne. And she has to do it fast because the killer is still out there. The more Reed investigates, the more she uncovers. And as any Billings Girl knows...secrets can be deadly.

Posted by mary on August 09, 2008 at 07:27 AM EDT #

well it says reed knows the way to get it ALL back...inculding josh!!!!! so i think tht they will get back together in this book!!!!! omg yesss!!! now i cant wait to read this book!!!...and wat is the exact date the book comes out? any1 know? i know it is in september, but thts all

Posted by mary on August 09, 2008 at 07:32 AM EDT #

The release date is September 16! However in the pass the books have come out early for the online from places like Amazon and Barnes and Noble. But you will not be able to buy them in the stores until the 16th. They usually are available as early as two weeks, but that can vary. Also we usually get the teaser from Kate, that should be coming anytime now. But that will only make is harder to wait. We will have to see what happens with Josh and Reed. After the way he was acting in Legacy before what Reed did I am not sure I want them to get back together. He was not being very nice to her. He is not the same person he was in earlier books. Just my opinion!

Posted by Amber on August 09, 2008 at 03:41 PM EDT #

Amber, I kinda agree with you, on how josh has been acting around reed! being a jerk and so.. They have to get back together or i will never read them again! (ok i was kidding bout not reading them again) Well, if there going to be 15 or 11 books coming out..i don't think Kate would put reed and josh back together so early! it can wait til the 10..or the 13/14 book. In those time we can learn the whole secerts of the Billings!

Posted by Ambika on August 09, 2008 at 04:19 PM EDT #

ok, well u mite not want them together again, but i woold DIE if they werent together again!!! but like u said tht he wasnt being nice to her when he wanted her to go back w/ him. but like he didnt want to go in the first place, so he was doin a favor to her by going, and all he was asking was tht she do him a favor and leave early. so really reed was the 1 tht was acting childish...in my opinion (which is mostly always correct)...if tht made sense...lol....mary

Posted by mary on August 09, 2008 at 05:27 PM EDT #

Mary- I do agree with you about going to the Legacy, I am talking about the fact that earlier in the book he was not supportive or proud of her for all the work she was doing. I understand why Josh does not like the Billing girls, but at the same time Josh let his hate of Noelle affect his relationship, that is my opinion. I would be happy if they get back together as long as he goes back to being sweet Josh. At the funraiser in Ambition he was out to distroy Reed, by pulling Ivy into that full body kiss and also using his sweet calm voice to Ivy after she was done talking to Reed. He had not done that to Reed in the last couple of books. Just the fact that he would go along with Ivy and let her do that speaks to just how much he has changed. I know that Reed hurt him, but for him to cause her that much pain is not the person we all thought Josh was. The question is which one is the real Josh?

Posted by Amber on August 09, 2008 at 07:15 PM EDT #

I think that maybe Josh took it hard because of everything else that has happened in his life. Like when his roommate died and then Thomas which was his other roommate. Then the fact that he has to take (how many) pills to be his "normal" self again. Maybe he just didn't want to lose Reed too. Maybe thats why he wants to destroy Reed. To show her how much she hurt him.

Posted by Niya on August 09, 2008 at 07:56 PM EDT #

Okay that last part really didn't make much sense.

Posted by Niya on August 09, 2008 at 07:57 PM EDT #

And you know how everyone is like im not gonna read the books if Reed and Josh dont get back together?? I was just thinking about that and if we don't read the books, how are we gonna know if they do get back together???? Just sayin'.

Posted by Niya on August 09, 2008 at 08:00 PM EDT #

I see whats going on. I understand Josh now, how he feels. After losing mostly everything in the last two years. I really don't think it was the real josh at the funraiser, ivy could of brain washed him. Giving him all of the negavite things about reed until he really hates her. But if Ivy didn't do anything to josh, and this is the real him...then idk if hes the right one for reed.

Posted by Ambika on August 09, 2008 at 08:17 PM EDT #

lol niya ur rite bout not reading the books thing......but um amber, ur rite, i understand now wat ur saying bout josh and like how he wasnt suporting her about the billings thing, and how he could have been more happy of her evan tho he doesnt like billings. and also like part of the reason i fell in love w/ josh was b/c of how sweet he was so reed, but tords the end, we didnt see much of tht side of him......but i am still convinced tht reed and him r gunna get back together b/c in the like summary, it says how reed knows how to get back everything INCLUDING josh!

Posted by mary on August 09, 2008 at 08:23 PM EDT #

o nd ambika, i truly belive tht the josh we saw at the fundraser wasnt the real him and tht ivy brainwashed him

Posted by mary on August 09, 2008 at 08:25 PM EDT #

i just feel bad for josh. like, put yourself in his position. u have to take pills every day just to be normal, ur roommate dies so u go to another school and ur roommate dies and ur blamed for it and put in jail, ur girlfriend is best friends w/ the girl tht killed ur best friend and humiliated him, u have a fight w/ ur gf and u come up to appologize and u see her hooking up w/ ur best friend....god i feel bad for him =[

Posted by mary on August 09, 2008 at 08:33 PM EDT #

YAY, I made a point! Now I feel utterly bad for Josh. Okay im creeping myself out. Im talking about him like he is living. THat gave me shivers.

Posted by Niya on August 09, 2008 at 09:26 PM EDT #

Am I the only one on here this late?

Posted by Niya on August 10, 2008 at 12:25 AM EDT #

Where in New Jersey is Kate from?

lol nice if josh was real im sure he would b hotttttttt lol

Posted by Katelyn on August 10, 2008 at 04:45 PM EDT #

Yeah I live close to them. It takes about 20 minutes to get there. I live in West Orange and they live (well lived) in Wyckoff.

Posted by Niya on August 10, 2008 at 05:19 PM EDT #

omg thts so cool! i LOVE them!........but katelyn, i bet josh would b hot if he were real. lol love him to!

Posted by mary on August 10, 2008 at 05:55 PM EDT #

NIYA, you're not alone. LOL I talk about Josh, Reed, etc like their real people and I know them so well.

Where is everyone here from, state wise.

Posted by Niya on August 10, 2008 at 08:05 PM EDT #

I am so angry/sad. how can Josh and Reed not be together?!?! Please PLEASE tell me they get back together! u can't let Ivy take him. O and I really wanna slap Dash for getting her into this.

Posted by Claire on August 10, 2008 at 09:56 PM EDT #

K i know this sounds bad but i think that reed should just leave Easton cause she screwed things up so bad and there is no way that people are going to love her anymore. She is done 4 just like my mercades last week any way she needs to go back to croton cause then she cant mess up her life anymore

Posted by Geena on August 10, 2008 at 11:16 PM EDT #

ok, so i am from CT......but geena now tht reed isnt in billings, she mite leave, b/c it was so important to her to b in billings, and tht was like what she wanted to be in from her 1st day.

Posted by mary on August 11, 2008 at 07:56 AM EDT #

I think that she'll stay in Billings and she will accomplish some sort of task thing that will make people like her again(maybe including Josh).

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 10:49 AM EDT #

Yes CLAIRE, I wanna slap him too, and Reed.

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 10:51 AM EDT #

i just discovered the private series this july and i cant wait till the next book comes out. These books are so addicting. I love them. I wish i went to Easton!!!

Posted by Gabby on August 11, 2008 at 11:15 AM EDT #

i kno that would be sooo cool but i would want to only be in Billings.

Posted by Maria #1 on August 11, 2008 at 11:36 AM EDT #

I would definetely NOT want to go to Easton. I would be emotionally unstable after one semester there. Even if I didn't know Thomas or Cheyenne they would have still been my classmates and I would've cried every single day there. I would also be afraid for my life!!

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 11:45 AM EDT #

Oh yeah and what if there is some psycho murderer going around Easton? Like A in the Pretty Little Liars series? THAT would be NICE.

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 11:46 AM EDT #

OMg! I can't believe there's going to be 15 Private Series books! And I just found out that you can see the cover to Paradise Lost on Simonsays.com! It looks different to the normal covers, it seems as if Private is changing it's look. Anyways, Kate HAS to have Josh and Reed get back together, like every comment in here says they should! I cried when Josh caught Reed and Dash together, I was so mad at Reed... It's not even funny! and then I cried even harder when Josh kissed Ivy! Jesus! THat was torture!

Posted by Lauren on August 11, 2008 at 11:52 AM EDT #

continued...I go back like every week and read all the parts in confessions and inner circle, with Josh in them! I know I'm such a freak!lol! I've had this theory that Kate is going to kill Josh off. And then I like break something I'm so mad. I love Josh! He's a rare kind to have, but Reed didn't notice that until she lost him! Do you think that Ivy is like going to try to kill someone... like Reed or Josh? Or BOTH!? Omg, the suspense waiting for this book is killing me! I was so mad when I heard Revelation was the last book. I'm like jumping up and down to the fact that there's more Private!!! There books are my life!

Posted by Lauren on August 11, 2008 at 11:53 AM EDT #

i think it woold be imposible to kill of reed b/c the books center around her. but i have a feeling tht ivy mite not kill, but hurt josh in some way just to hurt reed. but idk yet b/c she is dating him. but i was wondering y ivy hates reed, i meen i know she hates billings and reed is, or was the president, but she wasnt even there when all the drama w/ ivy and billings took place..... and i dont think tht i woold want to go to easton. i always wanted to go to a boarding school, but i agree w/ niya. i woold b an emotional wreck after like 1 week there. and if i went there, i woold deffinataly want to b in billings.

Posted by mary on August 11, 2008 at 02:49 PM EDT #

OMG! I LOVE LOVE this one! I cannot even believe what happened. I feel so bad for Reed and how she has like no more friends except Dash. BUT like she deserved it. I still cant get over Ivy and Josh. I just wish that josh could see something in Reed still. UGH! i wanna read the next one so bad! AHH! Is this the last one? Or are more coming later on?

Posted by Jessica on August 11, 2008 at 02:52 PM EDT #

OMG Lauren I did the same thing. Especially Untouchable when they first hooked up. SOoooooo romantic.

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 04:15 PM EDT #

there are supposedly around 15 books in the Private Series.

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 04:17 PM EDT #

I was actually thinking that Kate would end Josh in some freakish way. But it hurt too much to even entertain the idea.

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 04:19 PM EDT #

Cool. I'm going to check the cover for PARADISE LOST. Oh, and I'm from CA. I don't think Reed is going to leave Easton. She wants to save Josh from Ivy and figure out who the murderer is.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 11, 2008 at 04:21 PM EDT #

I'd just like to point out that when I first went on this blog, there were only like 3 other people and they all hated like Josh. I'm glad that there are actually people that like him now. I can actually share my feelings about him now without being dogged about it. YEAH AND IS THE SERIES BECOMING A MOVIE/TV SHOW? I SIGNED THE PETITION LIKE 23 TIMES(SHhhhhhh!).

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 04:23 PM EDT #

Whoa! Just checked out PARADISE LOST. It definately looks different....different models for sure.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 11, 2008 at 04:23 PM EDT #

NIYA, I always liked Josh but then I started getting annoyed by him. Just because of the Ivy thing but I still like him.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 11, 2008 at 04:24 PM EDT #

NIYA, I'm baaaack. OMG! I signed that petition like 15 times too!!!! I really think that it should become a tv series. It'd be much better than one movie!!!! TV! TV! TV!

Posted by Maria on August 11, 2008 at 04:25 PM EDT #

MARIA!!!!!! YAY! are you in Laguna now! cant wait 2 see you. It should definetely be come a tv series!

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 04:28 PM EDT #

Umm..where can you sign the petition? I really want to to be a tv series!! way better, i agree with Maria!! For ivy hating reed wit out knowing anything about her...remember when ivy would walk by reed's table in the cafe. she wold glare at her or sumthing...maybe she had feelings for Josh? When she was in Easton and now she is back. So, i'm guessing that ivy wold do anything to get josh to like her! Even messy with their relationship! (God i hate her!, but if ivy turns out to be a good person..then i would scream!!) But, idk whats wrong with ivy...how can sum1 hate sum1 with out knowing them? God, i love josh! I swear i need a person to be like Edward Cullen and Josh combine! (srry for adding twilight in here) That is my dream man! lol god i'm so lame!

Posted by Ambika on August 11, 2008 at 08:00 PM EDT #

Whoa i just say the cover of Paradise Lost! Wow that's different....

Posted by Ambika on August 11, 2008 at 08:04 PM EDT #

i personally dont like the cover for paradise lost. idk its just different....ok so u rele cant say tht dash was reeds only friend, b/c what he did to her was not at all friendly. he was the only 1 tht understood reed, not her only friend....and also, like if they make the books into a movie or a show then here is my problem. i have like visually pictured all the charecters in my head, so if they cast ppl tht dont look like the ppl in my head, i will like freak out...lol...like some ppl made u-tube videos tht were like 'if there was a movie. this woold b the cast' and they got the ppl all wrong and i was like, NOOO thts not how they look!!!....lol....kinda obsesive, but

Posted by mary on August 11, 2008 at 08:55 PM EDT #

YEAH, now that I think about it, Ivy was always after Reed, wonder if its anything deeper than the fact that Ivy hates everything in Billings. And I really want to know if Noelle killed Cheyenne. That'd be a sick twist. Wait, is it just me or was Noelle in the room with Cheyenne the night she died. Um i think its just me.

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 09:02 PM EDT #

Nd I really think that either Josh killed someone or Josh is going to be killed. Oh yeah and remember when Josh and Reed kept seeing figures. And Reed kept thinking that she was seeing Cheyenne? I wonder if that was Ivy messing with her mind or if it was actually Cheyenne's spirit. WOOOOooooooo...

Posted by Niya on August 11, 2008 at 09:05 PM EDT #

Doreen - ok first of all i would like to say I LOVE BREAKING DAWN I SOOO TOTALLY CRIED TEARS OF JOY (sorry not realted just had to get that out there) secondly the whole noelle killing chyenne thing could be tru because why was she there after the murder and its almost the same thing as the lenne(Natashas girlfirend) situation about how they kicked her out to get reed in. noelle might have gotten rid of chyenne to make room for herself. she had to have known about reed and dash i mean come one she made it clear that she knew EVERYTHING. why she wouldnt just ruin reed right there i have no idea. thirdly the whole paradise lost is that when they are in senior year because if reed and josh get back together the whole long distance thing would never work out it never does. so that is just another reason why reed and josh wouldnt get back together.

Posted by doreen on August 11, 2008 at 10:38 PM EDT #

fourthly the whoel who is the real josh issue well i think that in all the books that i have read it says that people always want to get back at people who cheat on the so im thinking that josh was mad at reed so he got back at her with ivy and ivy wanted to get back at the billings but i dont think she would kill chyenne shes not that evil fifthly (not sure that exsists) if josh dies i will boll my eyes out i will cry soo much and it will be like reed has bad luck first thomas then josh? i dont think she would be getting any guys anytime soon if she keeps killing her boyfriends. and i know i know everyone says this but i really hope josh and reed get back together (maybe if we keep saying it it will actually happen)

Posted by doreen on August 11, 2008 at 10:49 PM EDT #

One thing i dont get is if Josh dies then who is going to be the one for reed, Dash?(Nope, at least i hope not) Trey? (cheyenne old boyfriend) or Gage( the slime ball) I really dnt think Josh would die...maybe do something thats terrible..but not going to die. Now that i think about it Mary ur right...i have each character in my head..if the casting people get em wrong, then that just ruins it right there.(like in the twilight movie..they got to wrong edward!..srry about that)

Posted by Ambika on August 11, 2008 at 11:03 PM EDT #

ok, i'm extremelyyy excited about Revelation. I just bought Ambition last night and finished in the next three hours. It was pretty much great, except i absolutely hated the last part! i loved having reed as the leader of billings. i really thought it was what she was destined for, and i don't blame her for what happened between her and dash, i mean, he was dash mccafferty and one can only be curious, he is described as being extremely gorgeous! plus she had already been drinking, her emotions weren't completely set straight. anyway,having her kicked out of billings was definitely the last thing i ever wanted to happen. and Ivy is just ridiculous. i can't stand her.

Posted by Gabby on August 12, 2008 at 02:17 AM EDT #

i mean i understand how bad billings was to her, but come on. reed wasn't a bad person, and it's time she got over trying to avenge all of the billings girls. her trying to date josh was just a little to overboard to me. i really hope that she's the one that's been sending all that stuff to reed and the one that killed cheyenne. it would pretty much be the perfect ending if everyone found out she's the one that did all that did that stuff, and josh and reed get back together. noelle is probably my favorite character in the entire book, i just love how she controls everything and has so much power. i really think it would be great if her and reed become friends again. i don't know how that will happen but i do hope that it does. i kind of don't like dash being with noelle though, i really think that him and reed are kind of supposed to be together, but theres still josh, so i'm not really sure how that's going to work out.

Posted by Gabby on August 12, 2008 at 02:20 AM EDT #

i just hope that all of it works out! reed definitely needs to be the head of billings again, along with her and josh being together! i'm pretty sure it will all work out nicely. kate brian is pretty much amazing! i seriously consider this series as good as the twilight series and harry potter! she really makes it to where i can't put her books down!

Posted by Gabby on August 12, 2008 at 02:21 AM EDT #

so int total agreement with Ambika about the whole twilight cast thing. EDWARD IS SOOOO WRONG he doesnt even have the reddish brown hair. that just broke my heart. josh cannot be killed off that would just end the book but ivy can like kidnap him or something so reed saves him and they have that whole moment and then they get back together. reed definetly was a good leader but she put that ahead of JOSH!!! and her friends soo i dont know. plus when she started doing stuff with noelle and ignoring all her other friends it may prove that noelle was trying to destroy her.

Posted by doreen on August 12, 2008 at 10:56 AM EDT #

why is everyone here so shocked that Josh got with Ivy? A) she has no friends so he has no reason to control her and make her choose B)Shes not in Billings, and she HATES billings, Reed and Noelle (Just like Josh). So he doesnt have to deal with the 'drama' of his gf being in Billings. They are pretty much perfect for eachother except for the fact that shes and evil freak who loves ruining peoples lives.

Posted by Kylie on August 12, 2008 at 11:00 AM EDT #

I'm back! lol! anyways, I almost cried when I thought about Josh being killed by IVY! Omg! I swear. And I agree with Doreen about Josh being kidnapped by Ivy and Reed saving him! It's like she gets some clue from Ivy and then it hits her and she know that she had Josh!!! I would be like so excited! That seems like it would be a really good twist to everything!! And then of course Josh and Reed would get back together! It would be so romantic! :) And do you guys think that maybe like Sabine killed Cheyenne? We don't know a whole lot about her. And she didn't like Cheyennne either! Or maybe Sabine kills Noelle! She hates Noelles guts! But that would be horrible if Noelle got killed! She's such a powerful girl! But then agian, Sabine might not be capable of murder...

Posted by Lauren on August 12, 2008 at 12:12 PM EDT #

BAck to Josh and Reed, does anyone think their relationship will last when Josh heads off to college? That's going to be so sad when they say good bye! I'll like boll my eyes out! I think they can make it work though! They love eachother!

Posted by Lauren on August 12, 2008 at 12:26 PM EDT #

josh and reed willnot last if josh goes off to college with out her. they would have to go through the whole she cheats on him thing all over again unless the book ends with them saying bye and we never know what happens after which would suck. Sabine wouldnt kill anyone, atleast i dont think. and ivy and josh have stuff in common but josh must have gone with ivy to get reed mad i mean IVY!! i dont think its goin to last

Posted by doreen on August 12, 2008 at 12:38 PM EDT #

LAUREN-first of alll i am not saying i dont want this to happen, but how do u know josh and reed will b back together by then. NIYA-i think the figures tht reed and josh were seeing were ivy and she was spying on them and trying to figure out a way to crush reed, so she choose josh. but i have a Q bout ivy. ok, so at the legacy party, how did ivy know tht reed was gunna b up there w/ dash so she could video tape it? i kinda think tht ivy like payed dash to do tht just so josh would break up w/ reed. or something like tht, b/c she was mad at them 4 crashing their party so tht mite have been a reason to. GABBY-ok so at the legacy reed mite have been drunk, but she knew wat she was doing. if she didnt want to hook up w/ dash, she wouldnt have. KYLIE-josh and ivy r NOT NOT NOT perfect 4 each other. only reed and josh r perfect 4 each other.

Posted by mary on August 12, 2008 at 12:57 PM EDT #

as much as i love reed and josh, i think tht reed could've been more consiterate of joshs feelings. like it happened a couple times tht josh asked reed to do something or go some place w/ him nd she turned him down. like when they were gunna go to boston and meet his brother and sister. or like the family reunion tht reed didnt go to. and when josh asked reed to leave w/ him at the legacy. or at cheyannes party when he wanted to b w/ her nd she went w/ noelle and the other girls......tht mite b another reason tht josh doesnt like billings b/c reed always blew him off to b w/ them.

Posted by mary on August 12, 2008 at 01:02 PM EDT #

Imagine if Ivy kidnaps Josh and the Reed comes to save him but he has already killed Ivy? MORE DRAMA! I'd love that!

Posted by Niya on August 12, 2008 at 01:16 PM EDT #

MARY, Ivy said that she likes to keep an eye on the party crashers(Reed).

Posted by Niya on August 12, 2008 at 01:18 PM EDT #

gocha........do u think tht josh still has feelings about reed, or tht he actually likes ivy b/c he used his like gentle voice when he was talking to her after ivy and reed where talking. so idk.......no but som1 said bout how what if reed goes to thomas' grave and she finds josh there and they get back together. tht would be the best think ever!!!!!

Posted by mary on August 12, 2008 at 02:32 PM EDT #

***thing

Posted by mary on August 12, 2008 at 02:33 PM EDT #

MARY, I totally agree with you that Reed could have been more considerate to Josh. I think Dash is innocent. I can't imagine him being against Reed. And at the fundraiser party at the end of AMBITION, Josh knew Ivy was going to slam the Billings Girls and how they're snobs in front of the whole crowd. I can't believe Josh let her do that even though he doesn't like Billings. Also at the cafe when Ivy was about to slap Reed. I forgot but did Josh see that?? I know he stopped her or something like that.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 12, 2008 at 02:58 PM EDT #

Yeah Josh really changed, but, we don't know like, what he was going through. Maybe Kate will give us more of an insight of what was going through his mind when he went for Ivy. Well Ivy actually went for him. And you know that when your heart is broken you become vulnerable. Right after they came back from the Legacy and Reed left the art cemetary Ivy went in right after her to talk with Josh. I bet she's using him. If you think about it, it doesn't seem like she is really in love with him.

Posted by Niya on August 12, 2008 at 03:48 PM EDT #

Niya- i tottally agree with you, bout Ivy using josh! I dnt get how people can use people for their own use! its just sick! If Ivy does kiddnap Josh, and reed saves him...that will be the best! Ivy will probably go insane if reed saved him. I would love to see her face! When Ivy and Reed were talking...i think josh stopped Ivy from slapping her! Probably then..Josh still had feelings for Reed.

Posted by Ambika on August 12, 2008 at 04:05 PM EDT #

OMG! I realy cant wait for all three to come. I'm really curious to see whats gonna happen with Reed and Josh,And Noelle and Dash(love square). I am really eager to see whoes life Ariana Osgood is destroying no with that penatrating stare. And then I wanna see how she spent her senior year not being a Billings Girl and all. So many thughts are just running through my head.

Posted by Lacey on August 12, 2008 at 05:15 PM EDT #

I think it'd be cool to see Reed go out with Gage if the Reed and Josh thing doesn't work out. Maybe like Sabine said he's not that bad once you get to know him. And I personally want to get to know him. Oh yeah, but I don't think that'd happen since Thomas was the bad boy type and so is Gage. Reed said she's done with them.

Posted by Niya on August 12, 2008 at 06:25 PM EDT #

remeber the look that josh gave reed before he left with ivy. that COULD have been a help me look. gage and reed would be soooo interesting. and i would also love to get to know gage. im in total agreement with niya

Posted by doreen on August 12, 2008 at 07:02 PM EDT #

Thank you! Yeah that look made me wonder. And, I really want to know where they are or were going. Wait don't they have to leave off there? So why is it that people keep saying that Josh is going to be graduating??? And Reed will be a senior???

Posted by Niya on August 12, 2008 at 07:41 PM EDT #

because josh is a senior right now and he is graduating but reed it a junior sooo its kind of hard for them to get back together with josh going off next year and reed still at easton

Posted by doreen on August 12, 2008 at 08:05 PM EDT #

I'd like to know more about Gage. Do you think Gage is mad at Reed? I also agree about Ivy using Josh.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 12, 2008 at 09:11 PM EDT #

hmmmmm i dont think gage know anything really. he was proberbly with some girl but who knows. i think his one of those guys that goes with his friends so im thinking he will side with noelle. not sure

Posted by doreen on August 12, 2008 at 09:22 PM EDT #

I don't agree with the whole Gage going out w/ Reed, he's always making fun of her! Who would want to give him a 2nd chance? Reed shouldn't she should just stop trying to make josh jealous and just try to get him back to her!!

Posted by Lauren on August 12, 2008 at 10:20 PM EDT #

Well don't ur crushes sometimes mess with you. And DOREEN do you know if Kate is gonna leave off when Josh and Ivy walk away 'cause Josh, of course, will still be a senior.

Posted by Niya on August 12, 2008 at 10:44 PM EDT #

But now that I think about it the whole long distance thing is SO not gonna work out if they do decide to get back together. So, now I really don't think that they will.

Posted by Niya on August 12, 2008 at 10:47 PM EDT #

josh cannot leave before him and reed get back because i will cry if they dont get back together. im hoping that kate will leave off where josh and ivy leave. and i am curious to see what noelle does to dash. since she didnt kick him out the moment she saw him, im guessing it didnt go as bad as reed and noelle

Posted by doreen on August 12, 2008 at 10:50 PM EDT #

I can't wait until Revelation either. It's like impossible to put down one of Kate Brian's books. I love them a ton! It's the first series that I have stuck with. When reading them, don't you just feel like it's a huge movie that you just can't stop watching? Maybe you feel as though you are there as one of the characters not mentioned? I know I do. :]

Posted by Mollie on August 12, 2008 at 11:21 PM EDT #

MOLLIE, when I read a good book/series I feel like there's a movie going on in my head. LOL Like one time I had to put a book down to go eat dinner and after I finished I would be like,"What show/movie was I just watching?...Oh wait, I was reading my book" LOL Ugh, I'm such a dork.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 13, 2008 at 01:20 AM EDT #

so every1 is saying tht the whole long distance thing wont work, but y would kate break up josh and reed if they just got back together. like if they get together and josh has to go away, i dont think they would break up b/c wat would b the point in getting back together if they knew josh had to go. so i think tht it will work if they get back together......o and i dont think tht gage will b mad at reed b/c isnt he known for doing tht ALL the time? like hooking up w/ randome ppl? so i think tht he will b on reeds side w/ tthis 1. but do i think tht reed and him should go out? no

Posted by mary on August 13, 2008 at 07:06 AM EDT #

OMG!!! The same thing happens to me. Okay so when I read, the words play as a movie in my head. Then when I put the book down im like what was I watching again??? That happens like millions(expecially with the clique books).

Posted by Niya on August 13, 2008 at 09:50 AM EDT #

Yeah I was saying that they are not going to get back together BECAUSE the whole long distance thing won't work.

Posted by Niya on August 13, 2008 at 09:52 AM EDT #

i agree with mary because if josh was leaving then they wouldnt get back together and they need to get back together but the long distance thing can work. also isnt reed on every guys list?

Posted by doreen on August 13, 2008 at 09:53 AM EDT #

i agree with mary because if josh was leaving then they wouldnt get back together and they need to get back together but the long distance thing can work. also isnt reed on every guys list?

Posted by Clare on August 13, 2008 at 11:06 AM EDT #

by da by this series ROCKS!!!!!

Posted by Clare on August 13, 2008 at 11:07 AM EDT #

Are they gonna make a movie or something ? Just wondering.

Posted by Clare on August 13, 2008 at 11:10 AM EDT #

Are they gonna make a movie or something ? Just wondering.

Posted by Clare on August 13, 2008 at 11:11 AM EDT #

Jacqueline, I do the same thing! I have all the characters in my mind and everything plays out as a movie! That's why I don't want PRivate to become a movie or tv series, then that whole mind movie is ruined! :( And everyone else, I think that Josh and Reed can make the whole long distance thing work out, when he goes off to college. I just have a feeling. And wouldn't it be great if they went to the same college!? I would love that! Kate Brian should do like a book about Reed's future! Like there could be like a Easton Reunion! THat would be so cool!!

Posted by Lauren on August 13, 2008 at 12:20 PM EDT #

I wish that Josh would be left back but that is SOOOOOOOoooo not gonna happen:(

Posted by Niya on August 13, 2008 at 12:51 PM EDT #

LAUREN, I'm so with you. I mean, I would be happy if it turns into a movie/show but then they might pick someone totally wrong for like Josh, etc. Bye. goign to raging waters. be back later

Posted by Jacqueline on August 13, 2008 at 12:53 PM EDT #

i agree with the movie thing, they never get tha characters right and i would soo love the what happens to reed book. if kate does write a book liek that reed and josh better still be together. they were meant for eachother

Posted by doreen on August 13, 2008 at 01:31 PM EDT #

I'm not really sure the long distance thing will work between Josh and Reed, if they get back together. Cuz if Josh goes to this ivy league collage, where dash is going. We all know it cost A LOT of money to get in one. So, what if Reed doesnt go to the same collage as Josh. Probably Josh wod get all jealous, if he thinks reed is with some1 else. vice versa. So, probably Reed or Josh will say "it wont work out being in different collages and stuff." but dis is my opinion if they get back together...

Posted by Ambika on August 13, 2008 at 02:14 PM EDT #

Josh is definetely NOT getting back together with Reed. I just have to face it. But I want it to become a tv series. Oh yeah and almost every girl in my school reads this series but doesn't know about this website or the petition.

Posted by Niya on August 13, 2008 at 02:47 PM EDT #

Where is the petition? I can't find it!

Posted by Ambika on August 13, 2008 at 04:03 PM EDT #

me neither oh and we can hope that reed and josh will get back together

Posted by doreen on August 13, 2008 at 04:46 PM EDT #

I hope that Reed will stay in Billings and have them find a way to forgive her! Josh and Ivy do not seem like a good couple. I really want to know what happens between Noelle and Dash! What happend with Kiran and her schooling? I hope that Noelle does not get destroyed by Ivy! I really like Noelle! Ivy is so mean, I wish she would get out of the books! Will Josh and Reed get back together? I hope so! A series about Arianna. That will be weird. Does Billings get destroyed? I hope that Cromwell leaves the school!! Hes so mean! I really want Ivy to leave! We havent heard from Taylor in a while...

Posted by Amy! on August 13, 2008 at 07:07 PM EDT #

Yeah, whats up with the whole taylor sitch? DONT BELIEVE THEM THEY ARE ALL LIES!!! I have no idea. Maybe we should try to figure that out.

Posted by Niya on August 13, 2008 at 07:39 PM EDT #

Just wondering: Did you guys like Thomas??

Posted by Jacqueline on August 13, 2008 at 09:59 PM EDT #

I LOVED Thomas!! I cried when he died! My heart broke in two!

Posted by Niya on August 13, 2008 at 10:01 PM EDT #

NIYA, I loved Thomas too!! And once Reed and Thomas just met, that was so cute. I like wallowed the next few days after reading that he died!! I've always liked him.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 13, 2008 at 10:25 PM EDT #

For the Taylor thing. What did Nolloe say to Reed, about why taylor left? I forgot...And that wasnt she leaving in Kiran's car...and why was the police guard following taylor behind her?

Posted by Ambika on August 13, 2008 at 11:36 PM EDT #

Yeah she left in Kirans car and I think that Noelle said that Taylor was sick or something.

Posted by Niya on August 13, 2008 at 11:50 PM EDT #

So, i'm guessing Taylor is not really sick, then what could i reason be that she left Easton?

Posted by Ambika on August 14, 2008 at 12:03 AM EDT #

we dont have the real reason she left BUT after they said that she was going to public school the whole time but i dont think THAT is true. "its all lies reed" that was interesting maybe they ARE all lies. well noelle is all lies

Posted by doreen on August 14, 2008 at 11:42 AM EDT #

yah i was really wondering what happened w/ taylor. and about thomas, i like him, but i like josh better. he was like more flirty where as josh is more like serious. josh and reed are better together.

Posted by mary on August 14, 2008 at 11:46 AM EDT #

i mean, personally that is what i think. =]

Posted by mary on August 14, 2008 at 11:47 AM EDT #

yeah i agree. josh is more like steady and wants a relationship. thomas might have said that he loved reed but then he told ariana the same thing soo he might have just been lying to reed

Posted by doreen on August 14, 2008 at 03:18 PM EDT #

uhm sorry for randonly saying this but have any of you guys noticed that on the cover of paradise lost the setting looks really, not eaton-ish and i think theres a pool behind those models. - Steph :)

Posted by steph on August 14, 2008 at 05:30 PM EDT #

also didn't taylor leave couz she was so overwhelmed with everything, and wasn't detective hauer guy escorting her into kiran's car?

Posted by steph on August 14, 2008 at 05:33 PM EDT #

I agree with everyone. But at first when Thomas died I felt like someone punched me in the gut. I was heartbroken for a character. When Reed and Whittaker went out I almost BARFED:( I remember when Reed explained how Josh was at the party in the woods and it looked like the beer in his hand was out of place 'cause he looked so innocent and angelic, and when Kate was explaining how he was acting when Walt said that he was taking Reed to Billings. I knew that Josh liked her and I wanted them to go out SO BADLY. At the end of the Legacy party after she "broke up" with Whit, and she was on the train and Josh offered his arm for Reed to rest on and then when she was falling asleep he was gently brushing her hair back... that was SO CUTE! I knew they were made for each other.

okaay one more very important thing I noticed. remebr how tiffany is always teh one behind the camera, well what if she recorded reed and dash then gave it to noelle. couz theey WERE BOTH on stage, so maybeeee she is hiding something, like maybe she is secretly, friends with Ivy. maybe she lied about losing her key so that she could get another one for Ivy? hmm. holy jeez, i really need the next book ! - Steph xxxox

Posted by steph on August 14, 2008 at 05:43 PM EDT #

and again... what about Kiran's birthday party ? think that will be in the next book ? maybe reed will go so say sorry so noelle or something ?

Posted by steph on August 14, 2008 at 05:47 PM EDT #

hmmm i dont think noelle is going to even LET reed next to her to say sorry shes that way. i think reed and josh were SOOOO cute but you know how they say that she was with josh at the art cemetery? and they said that everything that happened was sweet but reed said josh had never seen her before. weird

Posted by doreen on August 14, 2008 at 06:48 PM EDT #

I think..probably everyone that was in billings before the new year started..was behind everything that is happening to reed. Like how Steph said that tiffany could of recorded it. I'm not sure about the Twin Cities, but they could of helped Ivy, or Nolloe out, with destorying Reed. Like its said in Revelation, Reed discovers the scerets of billings!

Posted by Ambika on August 14, 2008 at 07:03 PM EDT #

tru tru that could have happened maybe non of then except natasha actully liked her and i wouldnt be suprised of chyenne turned out to be alive

Posted by doreen on August 14, 2008 at 07:07 PM EDT #

Lol that would be hard..cuz then how will to explain her dead body! But that wold be cool if she did. I liked her when she was nice..not trying to hook up wit Josh!

Posted by Ambika on August 14, 2008 at 07:35 PM EDT #

hahahaha yeah she was nice in confessions or untouchable i cant remember but after she tried to hook up with josh i started questioning her a little

Posted by doreen on August 14, 2008 at 07:50 PM EDT #

When she started acting like a B... then i started questioning her. I thought she changed, and felt sorry for Reed. For making her clean her room, but i was wrong.

Posted by Ambika on August 14, 2008 at 08:05 PM EDT #

yeah she was being so nice and then out of nowhere she starts hating reed that is kind of questionable right there there are sooooo many people that hate reed and want to destroy her. i think they are all ganging up on her but y is the the question

Posted by doreen on August 14, 2008 at 08:11 PM EDT #

yah i agree. i think tht cheyanne is like bipolar to. lol. like she hated reed, then she was bffs w/ her, then she hated her again!!. weird. lol

Posted by mary on August 14, 2008 at 08:47 PM EDT #

Yeah i know. I think that probably Nolloe and Ivy could be working together. Like everything that happen bad to reed was when Nolloe returned. We all know what Ivy wants is to destory billing, but I think Nolloe was power back in Easton. So she has to take down Reed in order to get it back.

Posted by Ambika on August 14, 2008 at 09:47 PM EDT #

but like reed offered her the presidency when she came back but she didnt want it. like why would noelle have any reason to hate reed?

Posted by doreen on August 14, 2008 at 10:16 PM EDT #

I think Noelle has no real reason to hate Reed, maybe she was planning on ruining reed's life from day one. I always thought that Noelle was telling Dash to send sweet e-mails to Reed, just to test and see if she could still trust Reed. Like since she knew about the emails! Idk, lol! But I love Josh wayyyy better then Thomas, and of course whit. He was so nice and delicate and sweet to Reed. I fell in love with him!!!Him and reed need to get back together, I'm still up for the long distance thing. I mean, Constance and Whittaker are in the middle of that! They call eachother and stuff! Josh and Reed could soo do that!!! wouldn't it be cool to have a book in Josh's point of veiw!?

Posted by Lauren on August 14, 2008 at 10:56 PM EDT #

What if Thomas is alive? NEAHHHHHHHHHHH.....

Posted by Niya on August 14, 2008 at 10:59 PM EDT #

It would be awesome to have it in Josh's point of view.

Posted by Niya on August 14, 2008 at 11:00 PM EDT #

yeah yeah omg that would be awesome. thomas alive hmmmmmmmmm that would bring up some questions and would definetly stur things up but i go wit the neah but it could make for a good book

Posted by doreen on August 14, 2008 at 11:57 PM EDT #

yeah, we wanna know Josh's thoughts about losing a roommate/best friend. and then losing Reed! That wold be crazy and awesome! We really dont know whats up with Noelle and Reed. If Noelle is really out to get Reed. Sometimes it does seem like that, then it seems that noelle is protecting Reed.

Posted by Ambika on August 15, 2008 at 12:14 AM EDT #

yeah thats what i think too but we seriously know nothing about noelle except she know EVERYTHING so i no she knew about reed and dash. maybe noelle found out about reed and dash before hand and she was trying to ruin reed all along for getting with her boyfriend hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm interesting

Posted by doreen on August 15, 2008 at 12:57 AM EDT #

yah how does noelle know evrything? she must have like ppl. working 4 her and tell her stuff. idk. but maybe kate will do an in between series in josh's point of view. that would be SOOO cool!

Posted by mary on August 15, 2008 at 08:33 AM EDT #

yes i want to know how he reacted when he first saw reed when she ran into thomas cuz the look he gave her doesnt say THAT much.

Posted by doreen on August 15, 2008 at 10:59 AM EDT #

I like Thomas, but Reed's relationship with Thomas wouldn't be very healthy. He needed help.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 15, 2008 at 01:02 PM EDT #

You know how people were saying that Noelle probably told dash to write all thoes emails to her. I think thats true! and i never really thought that dash was in love with reed. Just doing what Noelle told him to do. So, i'm guesing that noelle wanted her to have feelings for dash. i think noelle told dash to hook up with reed at the legacy.

Posted by Ambika on August 15, 2008 at 03:39 PM EDT #

Really?? I think Dash really has/had feelings for Reed.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 15, 2008 at 06:36 PM EDT #

i never thought that dash had feelings for reed. maybe he was atracted to her, but i don't think that he had feelings for her.

Posted by mary on August 15, 2008 at 07:02 PM EDT #

Well, yea attracted. I think he's a good guy. I don't think Noelle made him hook up with Reed.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 15, 2008 at 08:33 PM EDT #

I was thinking... What if Dash gave Noelle that scar. Like when they broke up or something. Maybe they got into a fight.

Posted by Niya on August 15, 2008 at 09:33 PM EDT #

Since their relationships were on again off again. 2 whole years.

Posted by Niya on August 15, 2008 at 09:33 PM EDT #

>>>>>>Since their relationship was on again off again for 2 whole years.

Posted by Niya on August 15, 2008 at 09:34 PM EDT #

ugh cant wait for realition to come out josh and reed have to get back togetther!

Posted by alli on August 15, 2008 at 09:36 PM EDT #

dash doesnt look like one to flip out and attack noelle but i might be one of those cases where the guy goes into it not expecting to feel anything but ends up falling for the girl. like noelle and dash might have set the thing up but then out of nowhere dash falls for reed and starts really caring about her

Posted by doreen on August 15, 2008 at 10:07 PM EDT #

What if Noelle and Josh had past disagreements that contributed to the reason why Josh hates her so much.

Posted by Niya on August 15, 2008 at 10:39 PM EDT #

hmmmm that could be right. or maybe josh sees through noelle and knows what she is capable of and he obviously wants to protect reed but reed doesnt listen to him she never does. that aggitates me.

Posted by doreen on August 15, 2008 at 10:48 PM EDT #

DOREEN, it gets on my nerves when Reed doesn't listen to him too. Josh has been there for Reed, and Reed pays him back by not visiting his family, etc. I wish that Reed can be...less selfish?

Posted by Jacqueline on August 15, 2008 at 11:48 PM EDT #

i know she doesnt consider josh's feelings but josh does so much for her and she doesnt even do anything for him

Posted by doreen on August 16, 2008 at 11:20 AM EDT #

Exactly. Gosh just thinnking about Josh, makes me anxious to read the next book.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 16, 2008 at 12:57 PM EDT #

I so agree! Josh is so nice to Reed, he loves her so much, so he'll do anything for her not to get hurt. Like when Ivy was about to slap Reed and Josh grabbed Ivy's hand! I took that in a way meaning Josh didn't want Reed to get hurt, not for Ivy to make a scene! He still cares about Reed after what she did to him. But what really aggregates me about Reed, is that she doesn't realize what Josh does for her. Well she will like 2 times. She should just be more sensitive with him. He's the guy you never want to let go of.

Posted by Lauren on August 16, 2008 at 01:24 PM EDT #

thinking about Josh makes me smile! Lol it's so weird but i love it!

Posted by Lauren on August 16, 2008 at 01:25 PM EDT #

Well, it's true that Reed never thinks about all the stuff josh does for her. I hate that about Reed. Ever since she became apart of Billings, or even started hanging out with Noelle and them, she has changed. In Revelation, if she gets kicked out of Billings, i think that would be best for her. Then she can get her head back, and realize that she changed so much. I'm thinking she is becoming what she never wanted to become in the first place.

Posted by Ambika on August 16, 2008 at 01:40 PM EDT #

Yeah, I don't think she'll stay in Billings and I sure don't want her to. Maybe then will she realize how much she has lost. Josh, which has to be number one. He was so sweet and was just one of those guys who had the whole package, Noelle, someone in Easton who really cared about Reed and has helped and taken care of her all throughout her Easton life, and respect from all of her friends, in which I personally could not live without.

Posted by Niya on August 16, 2008 at 02:08 PM EDT #

I know that no one is going to want to hear this, but, I don't think that Josh deserves Reed. She has really changed and he is just too nice for her now. Their personalities just don't...go. (Not like I'm saying that Josh's and Ivy's do, 'cause, they dont.)

Posted by Niya on August 16, 2008 at 02:12 PM EDT #

yeah but reed was fine the way she was like she was perfect and then she got into billings and then she wasnt perfect anymore like josh is REALLY nice but sometimes nice guys are the best way to go

Posted by doreen on August 16, 2008 at 02:21 PM EDT #

i still dont get it though Niya i mean y didnt Reed just tell Josh that she didnt kno wat she was doing either cuz i mean she was tottally drunk....wouldnt that b a valid excuse? p.s Niya can u believe how many ppl r like commenting 300!!!! thats crazy!!!

Posted by Maria #1 on August 16, 2008 at 03:58 PM EDT #

we dont know exactly wat was in those fussy pink drinks

Posted by doreen on August 16, 2008 at 04:23 PM EDT #

I agree that being kicked out of Billing's will change Reed. Maybe she'll learn to really enjoy and love things while she has them. (josh cough cough) She was so much better before she got into Billings, well she was kind of a follower and did what ever the billings girls did. And I think that Thomas had a past w/ Billings. Like they did something to him. So when Reed meet him, that's why he hated Billings so much. And then maybe he told Josh about it, then that's the reason why Josh hated them too like before anyone knew they killed THomas. And then Josh can't stand being near them after everyone found out about them kidnapping Thomas and Araina killing him. And we don't know what's in those drinks!!

Posted by Lauren on August 16, 2008 at 04:36 PM EDT #

I'm wondering who really gave thoes pink drinks to reed, i think it was Tiffany, but i'm not sure. If it was one of the Billing girls, i think they were up to something. If they were really Reed's true friends, and they knew sumthing was in there. Then they wouldnt of gave it to her.

Posted by Ambika on August 16, 2008 at 05:10 PM EDT #

how many more lives can Arianna ruin? Isnt she in like jail or something? I want to know what the fabulous Taylors up to!

what ever happened about Noelles scar....

Posted by Amy! on August 16, 2008 at 09:48 PM EDT #

Yeah Maria there are soooo many comments, but there would be more if people knew about this website. I used to always type in privatebooks.com, and when I searched on yahoo this website was nowhere to be found. But I also don't know why she didn't just tell him that she was drunk. Maybe she knew exactly what she was doing and thought it wouldn't be a good enough excuse? Either way I say she could have given it a try. And Amy, I'm guessing the scar was by Dash. That would be a very cool twist. Kate can't just talk about it all day then leave us hanging, so I guess we'll find out in the next book!

Posted by Niya on August 16, 2008 at 09:56 PM EDT #

hopefully, oh and what if dash fooled reed and the fuzzy drinks did the rest?

Posted by doreen on August 16, 2008 at 10:22 PM EDT #

Looking at the cover of Paradise lost I see a pool also, however I think it may take place on summer break from Easton or maybe Spring Break. I do not think that Kate would leave Easton, that would completely change the heart of the books. So I think we will get plenty more of Easton. I think the next arc will take place at at different time during the school year, otherwise the books will just repeat the same things, kinda what is happening now with the Legacy party, a lot of the same events are happening.

Posted by Amber on August 16, 2008 at 10:42 PM EDT #

Yeah, what if Dash put something in her drink?........ NAAAHHH.... Maybe Ivy did?

Posted by Niya on August 17, 2008 at 12:32 AM EDT #

that would b soo weird if the same thing happened to reed like it happened to Josh.

Posted by Maria #1 on August 17, 2008 at 10:32 AM EDT #

I think that Paradise Lost is about Reed's summer. Maybe she's accepted back in from everyone and hanging out w/ them this summer. And hopefully that will included our beloved Josh...

Posted by Lauren on August 17, 2008 at 11:09 AM EDT #

the fact that there is a paradise lost means that reed does survive the whole noelle situation because noelle made it pretty clear that she was going to get reed thrown out of easton sooooooooooooo hmmmmmmmmm theres something to think about

Posted by doreen on August 17, 2008 at 11:34 AM EDT #

i do think that ivy and Arriana are connected......o and so usually the books don't last a whole school year, like one book only lasted like 1 month. so it is possible that josh and reed can still get back together while josh is still at Easton.....and i am pretty sure that it was ivy that put something in the drink. and i dont think that dash would do that to noelle.(about the scar thing) like wouldn't she fight back, she is that kinda person. or the kinda person who wouldnt let their bf do that to them. she kinda controls the relationship. ummm, also maybe you guys are thinking a little to hard about the paradise lost cover. maybe they just wanted to change up the look of it a little more, and maybe it really doesn't have a big effect on the book. maybe we should read revelation first and then make gueses.

Posted by Mary on August 17, 2008 at 12:00 PM EDT #

i agree mary! though we still have awhile before it comes out(sigh) anyways maybe reed nevers get back into billings! that would suck but maybe something big is suppost to happen while shes back in her home town or something.

Posted by Katelyn on August 17, 2008 at 12:18 PM EDT #

Well, everyone at Easton has a secret, and we have found out everybodys except Dash. We all know that he loves Reed and I don't think that that would be his secret. It just not, juicy enough. I think that Paradise Lost is just what it says, PARADISE LOST. Maybe Reed loses everything and so........ yeah, I don't know. I sound stupid.

Posted by Niya on August 17, 2008 at 02:53 PM EDT #

We have to find out Noelle's secret (the scar) and Taylor's which is about the whole email "They're all lies" WOOOOOOooooo...

Posted by Niya on August 17, 2008 at 04:01 PM EDT #

Dash is supposed to be a gentalmen. He would never hurt Noelle. I agree. I think that Ivy and Arianna are connected....somehow! Whats happening with Taylor!! AHH. I want to know!

When does Revalation come out?

Posted by Amy! on August 17, 2008 at 04:15 PM EDT #

Has anybody found a spoiler for the first chapter of revelation?

Posted by Bridget on August 17, 2008 at 04:31 PM EDT #

The spoiler will not come out until Kate posts it, wh should be getting it anytime now since we are within a month of release. I would think that it will be her next post on both this website as well as her myspace page. The official release date is Sept. 16th. But you may be able to get it sooner online from Amazon or Barnes and Noble. I am sure that we are in for a shock with this book.

Posted by Amber on August 17, 2008 at 04:40 PM EDT #

I agree that when Reed gets kicked out of Bilings, Reed will be herself again. NIYA, when you put: I don't think Josh deserves Reed. I used to say that too and my friend would get mad at me cuz she loves JOSH. LOL But I kind of think the same thing though I want them to be together and Reed can start being more sensitive. If Thomas were still alive(I wish! lol) I bet Thomas would be doing the same as Josh. Not wanting Reed to hang out with Billings.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 17, 2008 at 05:03 PM EDT #

Thomas hated Billings! HAHA and about the sneak peek, those come out THE release date, Ambition's sneak peak came out on THE release date!

Posted by Lauren on August 17, 2008 at 06:40 PM EDT #

I wish the books would come out faster! I hate waiting! I like Josh. I just think that he deserves more attention from Reed. She is always ditching him and treating him badly.

Posted by Amy! on August 17, 2008 at 06:45 PM EDT #

Exactly! Lauren, I remember reading the first chapter of AMBITION before the book came out. LOL, I got AMBITION like a week before it came out.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 17, 2008 at 07:00 PM EDT #

Lauren-That is true for the sneak peak of ambition, that it came out late, however the one for Legacy was out at least a month before the release date. Kate said last time that is was late and hopefully will out asap!

Posted by Amber on August 17, 2008 at 07:25 PM EDT #

hopefully im trying to distract myself but its not working as i hoped i want sooo bad to see what happens

Posted by doreen on August 17, 2008 at 07:35 PM EDT #

Yea, me too!!

Posted by Jacqueline on August 17, 2008 at 08:20 PM EDT #

Im going to die, lol, i've gotten so sucked into this series that i have read all the books in one week, more like one a day, but i love these books, and i don't read very offten. :P Im so exsited to see what happeneds in Revelation, You have no idea! I tryed so hard to make the books last, but as soon as i start i can't stop, and at the really intence parts my heart starts to race. Well i don't know where im going with this, but thanks for the serious entertainment. Love, Dori :D

Posted by Dori on August 17, 2008 at 08:31 PM EDT #

Dori-I totally know what you mean! I love those book. I could not tear it away from my face the moment i started! It comepletely draws you in and the plot line is excellent. Everything is so mysterious you cant seem to grasp the exact thing, but when you do its totally different than what you first thought. Every time you think you understand something, there is a new twist that Kate adds into the book! Its truly amazing. I cannot wait to see what happens to Reed!

Posted by Amy! on August 17, 2008 at 08:48 PM EDT #

exciting isnt it ive read just abut everything this summer and my friends completely think im turned into a nerd book warm i hav no idea i get alot of names but this one book has stuck to me ALOT well not more than twilight cuz that was the first book i ever ACTUALLY read but this is definetly the second best of THE BEST.

Posted by doreen on August 17, 2008 at 09:44 PM EDT #

DOREEN, same here. I read the TWILIGHT SERIES first and then I started reading the PRIVATE SERIES. Did you read Breaking Dawn yet?? Anyways, I am like totally hooked on the PRIVATE SERIES like you guys. (Duh! LOL) I've first read MEGAN MEADE'S by Kate Brian first, so it was definately a surprise when I read the Thomas died! I never knew Kate was capable of doing that. LOL

Posted by Jacqueline on August 17, 2008 at 10:30 PM EDT #

I cannot wait for Revelation! I almost peed my pants when I read the last chapter of Ambition. AHH :]! Its soo weird how im disapointed and feel bad for Reed at the same time. But i was upset that Nolle seemed like she deserved to be upset with Reed when, because if hadn't been for her, Thomas wouldn't be dead. Well, the whole Ivy and Josh thing makes everything so intresting, I love it! It makes me wonder if Josh knows about everything she did to Reed or not, or if he is in on it too. A part of me doesnt even want them to end up togather, but then again, a part of me does. BUT then i think what if she ends up with someone wayy out of the blue like...Gage! He wouldn't be so judgemental of her because he is soo very shallow, and maybe there is more to Gage.Keep em' coming! Love, Meredith :]]

Posted by Meredith on August 17, 2008 at 11:31 PM EDT #

I wondering is Paradise Lost, then 9th book of the Private series? Sumtimes i think that Kate would put Reed with someone else. Which i kind of dont mind. Cuz we all know that Josh can be a jerk, but sweet. Also, during ambition, we left off during the winter..( i think) so then probably revelation we will contuine through the winter part of Easton, and Maybe paradise lost will take place of Spring in Easton.

Posted by Ambika on August 18, 2008 at 12:05 AM EDT #

i think reed should date someone else just to make josh mad hes a jurk kind of? I mean she was drunk right so i thought he should have forgave her its kind of like the same situation with cheyanne and josh right?

Posted by katie on August 18, 2008 at 12:29 AM EDT #

I was thinking... The 9th book's title is "Pradise lost", yeah? At the end of ambition, Reed has nothing left of her paradise, right? No friends, no Josh, no life in a way. And no more Billings in "Revelation", right? To lose something, you have to have it before. Considering reed ahs nothing left and she loses one in "Paradise lost", she gets something back in "Revelation". It can't be Billings, she's kicked out, it would be too quick... Friends? Maybe... Josh? Considering he's leaving at the end of the year, I don't think so! Maybe she gets kicked out of Easton? Oh well, we just have to wait for 28 days!

Posted by Ingrid on August 18, 2008 at 07:04 AM EDT #

Ingrid! You are totally right! ''Paradise Lost'' is an interesting title to ponder on. I think that she will remember something or ''make something known'' [as the dictionary says!] in ''Revelation''. Then in Paradise Lost there will be something that she loses for good. Right now, everything is temporary. You dont know for sure about anything. So...maybe she will get something good/or lose something dear. You never know! Can't wait! ~Amy!

Posted by Amy! on August 18, 2008 at 10:48 AM EDT #

i think that reed should go on a boy fast (like in the clique series....lol) and not date any1 until josh comes back to her. to show that he is the only 1. b/c if she dates someone else, maybe josh will think that she is over him and he wont come back.......o and no joke, i read all of these books in like 2 hours each. i had them all and just sat on the beach all day and read them.lol. mary =]

Posted by mary on August 18, 2008 at 11:59 AM EDT #

Mary- Your so right about Reed just not dating anyone. She should just tell everyone she can't get over Josh or something like that! And then finally he'll go back to her! But i think that the boy fast isn't a good idea! That means no Josh!! lol! But i'm like going to cry like so many tears of joy, if no WHEN Josh and Reed get back together!! I swear! lol!

Posted by Lauren on August 18, 2008 at 12:50 PM EDT #

Omg. Lauren. I totally know what you are saying! They NEED to get together or I will like die or something. I almost cried when they broke up!

Posted by Amy! on August 18, 2008 at 01:10 PM EDT #

Reed should just go for Josh now. Not date anyone. lol but in Revelation she's going to try to figure out who murdered Cheyanne.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 18, 2008 at 01:10 PM EDT #

this is like thomas' death all over again. like reed tring to figure out who killed him exept now it is Cheyanne. o and LAUREN ur rite bout the boy fast thing...oops. lol.

Posted by mary on August 18, 2008 at 01:27 PM EDT #

I wonder if reeds ever going 2 tell Josh what Ivy said 2 her?Ivy made it seem like she killed Cheyenne...which is weird becuz i wasnt expecting that from Ivy.was anyone else?

Posted by katie on August 18, 2008 at 02:39 PM EDT #

Josh maybe just thinking that Reed made up what Ivy told her if Reed tells Josh.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 18, 2008 at 02:47 PM EDT #

I agree with Jacqueline, he'll think that Reed is just trying to break them up, so she can get pay back.

Posted by Ambika on August 18, 2008 at 03:14 PM EDT #

yah JACQUELINE-if reed says anything to josh about what ivy said to her, than he wont belive her. he will think that he is just saying that to make her seem bad. but then the truth will come out and josh will feel all bad for no beliveing her and they will get back together and it will be all good! yay!!! (that is how i picture it) lol.....o and how many time do i have to say it!!! josh is not jerk!!!!!!!! god!........mary =]

Posted by Katelyn on August 18, 2008 at 08:41 PM EDT #

i liked the ending of breaking dawn but it feels like i dnt no i feel the same way after i finish reading any books its like i know it ended but it still feels like there is some part missing like what actually HAPPENS after the end

Posted by doreen on August 18, 2008 at 09:32 PM EDT #

so i was searching on barnes and noble. and it said that Revelation is the last of the series. but then i just saw that there was another private book called "Paradise Lost" out in febuary of next year. is it gonna be a new set of charecters? or the same ones?

Posted by Candice Huff on August 18, 2008 at 09:34 PM EDT #

On Barnes and Noble they are saying that this book is the last one in this story arc, Kate posted on her blog today on myspace this is not the last book she is going to keep writing them until they physically make her stop. So we are going to have a lot more of them to come.

Posted by Amber on August 18, 2008 at 10:17 PM EDT #

MARY, yea! that's how josh can get back together with reed. LOL DOREEN, Ah! I know. I love it too and it made me cry/teary eyed when I read it. I like the ending about "forever" but I hate that Stephenie Meyer put: "THE END". It's never "the end". lol AMBIKA, Thanks for letting us know! Yay! Please don't spoil the two chapters of it yet. LOL I need to read it!

Posted by Jacqueline on August 18, 2008 at 10:27 PM EDT #

DOREEN && KATELYN, also I think Renesmee is the luckiest girl ever!!! I'm so jealous. LOL

Posted by Jacqueline on August 18, 2008 at 10:29 PM EDT #

Posted by katie on August 18, 2008 at 11:34 PM EDT #

Posted by Jacqueline on August 19, 2008 at 12:52 AM EDT #

i know renesmee is sooooooooo lucky im just SUPER jelous of her now and yeah i true its never the end i wish she kept writing the books but i dont think there are going to be any other ones.

Posted by doreen on August 19, 2008 at 11:23 AM EDT #

omg ambika i didnt know that about her name!!!! wow i guese that makes me super slow....lol. o and someone already said this, but y did noelle forgive dash so easily and not reed. i meen he had as much, if not more, to do w/ it than reed. like that isn't fair. i still dont think that he has or had feelings for reed. and i want to slap him more than ever now.

Posted by mary on August 19, 2008 at 12:22 PM EDT #

OMG!!! those 2 chapters of REVELATION were soooooo GOOD!!! I love them all over again. But you can tell that her editor didn't EDIT it yet.

Posted by Niya on August 19, 2008 at 01:16 PM EDT #

ok sooo im just really sad that Reed has like nothing now. no boyfriend no friends... im soo scared to find out whats going to happen with her and Noelle and i want her and Josh to get back together. I dont know why ppl say she get together with Dash i think he was just using her

Posted by Alexandria on August 19, 2008 at 01:54 PM EDT #

MARY, I didn't read anything about Noelle forgiving Dash. Unless that's in the two chapters of REVELATION that I didn't read yet. ALEXANDRIA, I think Reed will do good with Josh, not Dash. I don't think Dash was using her. I don't hate him or love him.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 19, 2008 at 01:58 PM EDT #

o yah sry jacqueline, it was in the chapters....oops!

Posted by mary on August 19, 2008 at 02:40 PM EDT #

Posted by mary on August 19, 2008 at 03:32 PM EDT #

Wow Noelle was sooo unbelivably mean in those chapters of revelation.

Posted by Sylvia on August 19, 2008 at 04:06 PM EDT #

Posted by Ambika on August 19, 2008 at 05:11 PM EDT #

OMG. How do you get the first two chapters????????????!!!! EEK.

Posted by Sana on August 19, 2008 at 05:37 PM EDT #

Go to myspace.com/katebrian or wait until she post it on the main page!

Posted by Ambika on August 19, 2008 at 05:58 PM EDT #

noelle said in the chapters that dash was getting his own punishment but i dont think that its as bad as reeds and she said that dash said that reed came on to him so i dont know we'll just have to wait and see maybe noelles making it up or dash really did say that but i dont think dash would say that oh well

Posted by doreen on August 20, 2008 at 09:58 AM EDT #

Yeah. I really don't think Dash would we the one to say that.

Posted by Sana on August 20, 2008 at 02:58 PM EDT #

i was just wandering if josh and reed are dating cause i just started reading private and the last book i read was invitation only and i have the other book i think is call inner circle i'm not sure but i just wanna know if josh and reed are in love with each other

Posted by janine on August 23, 2008 at 12:58 PM EDT #

I just got done with the 3rd book and next time I go to the bookstore I plan on getting the next 3...and I hope you keep going as long as you can in the Private series...I love the series so much and I am glad you are not planning on ending it anytime soon. I just wanted to thank you and I am looking forward to the next upcoming books.

Posted by Maddie on August 24, 2008 at 06:32 PM EDT #

I totally think the Private Series should be turned into a movie! It would be kick ass and probably do really well in the theater

Posted by Colleen on August 31, 2008 at 12:09 PM EDT #

umm i think that the whole thing with josh nd reed was a plan on josh nd ivy's part. i think they had a thing b4 reed got there nd they planned 2 kill cheyenne nd i also think that explains the polka dot pill thing but i hope this is wrong nd josh nd reed get back 2gether!!!!!!!

Posted by jennie on August 31, 2008 at 10:42 PM EDT #

ok. this is really important. I have a couple questions that MUST. be. answered about paradise lost. They are extremely urgent. please email me at mpolo333@gmail.com URGENT!!!

Posted by Mia on September 15, 2008 at 10:19 PM EDT #

wow. revelation was so good. i didn't suspect the person who was behind everything. also, a lot of names were cleared. this book made me luv noelle even more. can't wait for last christmas, and privilege. seem like good books.

Posted by alice on September 20, 2008 at 08:55 PM EDT #

woah, i read revelations, in like one day. i did NOT suspect who did it. at all. and i completly heart noelle even more now:] i no weird right. but uhm i seriously hope her and josh get back togather in privilege or i will have some strong words :] anywho last christmas was also amazing, and i have to say i dont hate ariana as much as i used to. i feel kinda bad for her :[ anywayss gotta go loves, laura:]

Posted by laura on October 23, 2008 at 12:42 AM EDT #

ohm,igosh! i hope Josh and Reed get back together... I dont really like Ivy...Josh is better with Reed. After Thomas was murdered, I was so sad, and was so happy when she found Josh! THEY HAVE TO GET BACK TOGETHER!
