PRIVATE - The Official Site

Congratulations, once again, on the release of Perfect Mistake! :) I shall definetly look forward to my copy when Christmas comes! By the way, Kate; do you have any more news about the new book you'll be doing on the nine months missing in Reed's life? I would very much like to hear if any new ideas have popped up!

Posted by KR on October 27, 2009 at 09:57 PM EDT #

Wow. I can't believe I'm this high up! Finally! I can't wait to read Perfect Mistake. I have my copy on hold till tomorrow after school at Books A Million. And I surely can't wait for March when Scandal comes out!

Hey Kate! Just wanted to say that your new book was awesome! It kept me turning the pages and hanging on edge to see what was going to happen next, but that's nothing new, cause I'm like that with all of the Private/Privilege Books LOL. Just wondering, it doesn't say, but when does the next Privilege book come out? I can't wait!!! Thanks :)

I GOT PERFECT MISTAKE LAST NIGHT!... Unfortunatly my other book from another series I read came out last night too and I have to finish another book from yet another series... Plus I have A reseach paper and a bunch of other homework... so basically... I won't be able to read it for a while... or atleast until the weekend!(It is hard to keep up with 6 series at once! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!)

Posted by Justine on October 28, 2009 at 05:43 PM EDT #

I book my copy of the book and read it in a matter of hours. It was soooo good :) I will not post any spoilers but omg this book was beyond great. I cannot wait for scandal to come out!! Kate you write some really great books :)

Posted by Kate on October 28, 2009 at 06:19 PM EDT #

Yay!! SO going out n buying it!! Can't remember when suspicion comes out. Just re-read paradise lost, n i am so excited to see what happened to reed n who did that!!

Posted by Melissa on October 28, 2009 at 06:57 PM EDT #

*SPOILER ALERT* Mkay, I hope you're reading this Kate. Guess what needs to happen. Kaitlynn needs to go. GOT-TO-GO. Ariana either needs to kill her to make it look like an accident (like it did bridget) or turn her in so she has to live with that for the rest of her life. Maybe braindamage her some unsuspicious way and then have someone ELSE connect the dots for her so she won't have to be in the spotlight. (maybe plant the seed in T's head, because T would want to take al the credit.) Either way, Kaitlynn has got to go, that girl NEEDED to be in Brenda T.

Posted by Taylor on October 28, 2009 at 08:19 PM EDT #

*SPOILER ALERT* Also, what was up with that. Is Kaitlynn expecting ROYALTY, a PRINCESS, to die and no one investigate!?!?!?! People trip down the stairs all the time, the odds that she'd break her neck??? ONEMILLION IN ONE! Someone had better raise questions, what was Kaitlynn THINKING, did she ever think of just completing her task and moving on with her life like everyone else??? If she was real, I would find her and smack the stuff out of her. How is it though, that no authorities have continued the search for an escaped killer, that no one connected the dots, and that a random girl with no REAL identity, only $1000000, can enlist in a school with some of the most influental and highly guarded people of the world. Fishyyyyy...

Posted by Taylor on October 28, 2009 at 08:24 PM EDT #

ARIANNA IS CRAZY. SHE HAS KILLED ALREADY SEVERAL PEOPLE! SHE DOESNT DESERVE TO HAVE A LIFE OF ROYALITY!

Posted by alex on October 28, 2009 at 08:49 PM EDT #

KATE PLEASEE MAKE PRIVATE AVAILABLE IN MEXICOO!!!

Posted by maria on October 28, 2009 at 08:52 PM EDT #

SPOLIER ALERTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT Taylor has a point actually people fall down the stairs all the time, heck i fall down my stairs all the time from the top and never really get fatal damage except like a bruise or so i don't get how she could die from that. Maybe its just me.

Posted by alexy on October 28, 2009 at 09:12 PM EDT #

she could have fallen head first and could have had brain damage... like, people die from brain damage a lot if not checked out immediately.

Posted by Julie on October 28, 2009 at 09:32 PM EDT #

When will more eps. come out i need to see more!

Posted by Maureen on October 28, 2009 at 09:42 PM EDT #

KATE- On page 149 when all the girls were shopping including "lilly" you had Brigit call lilly KAITLYNN twice. And in the next chapter Brigit calls her Lilly. But i loved the book, im glad Ariana is with Palmer but i dont think she should have hooked up with him while Lexa still liked him. and to Maria and Taylor, i know it doesnt seem likely but they were in a palace. think how big the grand staircase is.

Posted by Maddie on October 29, 2009 at 08:27 AM EDT #

Maddie Kate knows its getting fixed.

Posted by abrielle on October 29, 2009 at 03:51 PM EDT #

OMG ! i loved it, i got it the second it came out and i read it all in one sitting i really cant wait for the next book int this seriess or scandal, i love your seriess :)

Posted by cattt on October 29, 2009 at 05:02 PM EDT #

Okay so the books are really good but the characters are soooo crazy. I feel bad for Arianna then I remember all the people she has killed, and don't feel so sorry anymore. I have a love hate relationship with the characters lol these books with take the reader on one heck of a ride. Does anyone know if there will be a season two of private??

Posted by Bella on October 29, 2009 at 05:02 PM EDT #

ughhh, im waiting for my friend to finish her. lol i cant find a copy anywhere so she said i can borrow hers after shes done. CANT WAIT! :)

Posted by Emily <3 on October 29, 2009 at 07:48 PM EDT #

Abrielle, how do you know it's being fixed? just wondering

Posted by jess on October 29, 2009 at 08:14 PM EDT #

um was this supposed to come out this week cause i got it like 2 weeks ago at borders but i wasn't sure if it was supposed to be there... so ya it was good though!

Posted by Haley on October 29, 2009 at 08:22 PM EDT #

SPOILER ALERT! 1) I love Ariana and Palmer together. My favorite, besides Josh and Reed/Thomas. 2) Kaitlynn completely deserves it. That girl needs to rot or go back to Brenda T. 3) Kateee, why did you have to kill somebody off?! Please, at least make Brigit still alive! Like she's in the hospital, but she's totally okay. This is the first time you killed off one of my favorites, and I'm really upset. At least everybody I loved is still alive! PLEASE. Not Brigit! You have no idea how many tears spilled down my eyes. I'm so upset. You don't even understand.

Posted by Allie on October 29, 2009 at 08:59 PM EDT #

uuuuuuuuugh i can't get a copy yet, well anyways i wanna now more about the nine months book, cause reed and josh will still be together i miss them to much!!!!! plz kate is your makeing the nine month's book plz let us see the first chapter

Posted by Emily on October 30, 2009 at 08:26 AM EDT #

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Posted by Emily on October 30, 2009 at 08:27 AM EDT #

Hiii Kate :) I just wanted to say that I have been following you since the BEGGINING and I have to say that I love your books sooo much, and that I finish all of them in about 5 hours :P soo you should make them come out every 9 days not every 9 months ;P Well I love this series, but I also love the private series with Reed. I love all the detail that you put into it and I can't see what's going to happen with Billing's, Reed, Sawyer, Upton, and Josh ;P because Josh seems pretty jealous and curious noww, and its all soo exciting and I CAN'T WAIT!

Posted by Tiana on October 30, 2009 at 11:26 PM EDT #

This is annoying only one other country besides U.S is able to see the web series but what about the rest of the other countries when and how much longer do we have to wait?

Posted by Midz on October 31, 2009 at 11:07 AM EDT #

OMG!!!! Kate i <3 ur books!!!! they r sooo awesome!! i can't wait 2 read Scandal!! but i still have a question...is Thomas rlly dead? cuz Reed thought she saw him waving at her when she got rescued in Suspicion! sooo??!!

Posted by Andrea =] on October 31, 2009 at 02:00 PM EDT #

ANDREA she was hallucinating him being there/seeing him all throughout when she was stranded on the island.

Posted by quinn on October 31, 2009 at 02:24 PM EDT #

emily... Happy halloween to you to:)

Posted by luna on October 31, 2009 at 05:27 PM EDT #

Okay, so I have started reading Perfect Mistake, and I am close to being done, but (SPOILER ALERT) did anyone else notice that in the chapter called Smooth, Brigit calls Kaitlynn by her real name more than once. Its probably just a typo, but it got my attention. lol i pay attention to details like ariana haha. But even though there was a little typo the book is really good so far! Kate is an amazing author! :)

Posted by CarolineL on October 31, 2009 at 09:58 PM EDT #

Oh, wait never mind. Maddie said the same thing! oops! i feel better now that it wasn't just me who noticed. But its not a big deal, the book is still great!

Posted by CarolineL on October 31, 2009 at 09:59 PM EDT #

WOW!! kinda weird, I know its my 3rd comment in a row, but I just now finished the book and it was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my gosh! I did not see the ending coming! (SPOILER!) I loved Brigit! i am so sad now :( Kaitlynn is awful! I know ariana was not a good person either, but idk it's almost like you get her more in this series. I can't wait for the next book. I wonder when it will come out...hopefully soon!

Posted by CarolineL on October 31, 2009 at 10:43 PM EDT #

Loved this book! It was amazing!!!!!!!!!! Sad that Btigit had 2 go :( &Katilyn needs to go! Shes insane! At least Ariana is able to have some self control, Katilyn will end up killing the whole student body! Lol! Anyways, I loved the book! It was great! Can't wait for the next book! Hope it comes out soon!

Posted by Aubre on November 01, 2009 at 12:30 PM EST #

When will the next season come out and will you post more blogs?

Posted by Maureen on November 01, 2009 at 03:59 PM EST #

are the privalage just as good as private? need to know!

Posted by justine anna wallace who is the #1 fan lol on November 01, 2009 at 05:46 PM EST #

it depends on if you like Ariana, if you do then yes they are

Posted by jess on November 01, 2009 at 07:25 PM EST #

to luna thanks, by the way i had a awesome haloween how was urs.....ok kate i love ur books so much thure so good ur like da best writer u and stephany meyers are the best writers ever love u

Posted by Emily on November 01, 2009 at 09:27 PM EST #

Hi Kate. LOVE the Private books..SO addicting! When's the next one coming out?

Posted by Hope on November 01, 2009 at 11:23 PM EST #

Finally got my copy!!! finished it in like 2 hours... kaitlynn must die. she must die. must die and go to hell. what ariana could do is somehow find a way to prove "lillian" killed brigit (if she's actually dead)and poof, problem gone. Because kaitlynn cant turn ariana in murder etc. because "ariana osgood" is legally dead. "briana leigh"never did anything and if kaitlynn says she did, ariana can just say she's mental and wrong in the head and is escaped from brenda t which she is. or alternatively kaitlynn could "accidentally" overdose. IE ariana pulls a Sabine on her sweet lovely roomie.

Posted by Pollie on November 02, 2009 at 08:20 AM EST #

WOW! That's really all I have to say. Okay this is probably the best Privelage book yet! Kate Brian is a pure genius she knows how to reel the readers and have them say out loud "Did that really just happen?" All my friends and I are huge Private/Privelage fans. We really wish that there will be a midnight opening for Scandel! I mean with a name like Scandel something juicy/shocking is bound to happen! Kate your amazing and keep writing!!! Has anyone read Ex-Mas yet? I think Im going to read it when December hits so reply to this message and tell me if its good!

Posted by Maggie on November 02, 2009 at 05:58 PM EST #

To Allie- Your sooooo right Brigit was one of my favs too. I was really upset at the end. But since its Kate Brian we are talking about anything can happen! Okay is it just me or does Palmer have that same kind of appeal that Thomas did? I still have a sneaking suspicion Thomas is alive. He was also one of my favs too!!!

Posted by Maggie on November 02, 2009 at 06:02 PM EST #

dont kill brigit ~~~~~ PLEASE I BEGGGGGGGG YOU !!! WIRTE BOOK IN thomas' view wouyld make me burst with joy

Posted by Chloe Gaian on November 03, 2009 at 12:25 AM EST #

Spoiler? I can't believe the ending! I really hate Katilyn, she is SO mean and awful. I wish Ariana would kill her. :) And Brigit? She was the sweetest character! I can't believe it...THis one was great but I think that the one's after this will be less...great? Like when you killed off my boy Thomas! He was my favorite (besides Noelle) Please write a book with Thomas in it! And "Maggie" I agree with you sort of, Thomas was more of a bad ass though!

Posted by Jasi on November 03, 2009 at 10:44 AM EST #

yeah, a little badass in guys is QUITE appealing. has anyone noticed ariana and reed have actually a lot of similarities? both their moms have/had "problems", both their boyfriends were stolen (thomas, josh - sort of), they both stole boyfriends from someone (melissa, ariana), and something bad happened after. melissa killed. thomas killed. attempt to murder reed. both ended up with some sweet guy (hudson/palmer, josh). both have/had antagonists(kaitlynn, ivy)

Posted by Allie on November 03, 2009 at 04:00 PM EST #

omg your right Allie

Posted by jess on November 03, 2009 at 04:30 PM EST #

I'm sooooo excited! I got Perfect Mistake today! I can't wait to start reading. i love all of the books! kate brian you totally rock! by the way, will the webseries start another season? Hope soo! <3

Posted by Bri on November 03, 2009 at 06:52 PM EST #

Posted by alex on November 03, 2009 at 09:12 PM EST #

Hey Kate!!! I absolutly love ur books!!! I have bought everyone out! Perfect Mistake was soooooo good!!! I just wanted to ask you if you were going to make a PRIVILEGE website too. I absolutly love all of your books and so I was just wondering. :)

Posted by MusicGirl on November 03, 2009 at 09:40 PM EST #

I know brigits supposed to be died right ut miracals happen and that was just to toooo much pplease do they unexpectale in a good way pleaae i begggg begg bgeggg in you!!!!

Posted by Chloe Gaian on November 04, 2009 at 12:23 AM EST #

kate!! you seriously need to send this book or make it come out in the Philippines already. I absolutely love your books and the privilege series is genius but its so unfair how we have to wait much longer for your book to come out here. Ive been waiting for it for days and its on even on the "books coming out soon" list. I have to keep reading the chapter one preview and I basically know what happens now with all the spoilers. Please ask your publisher to do something about it because I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one whose waiting. >< your awesome by the way. =D

Posted by veaswu on November 04, 2009 at 07:22 AM EST #

abrielle, there used to be over a 1000 within a couple of days, but no one comes on here anymore. And there's a chat room for private to so that's part of why not that may people go on the blog anymore http://www.chatmaker.net/chatap/rooms/Private%20Fans/

Posted by jess on November 04, 2009 at 12:13 PM EST #

actually, nobody goes on that chatroom anymore...they used to, but not anymore. OH, and about the similarities i listed earlier...they also come from places a typical billings girl wouldn't come from. ariana: the south. reed: croton, PA

Posted by Allie on November 04, 2009 at 01:07 PM EST #

CHANGED MY MIND...EX MAS IS WONDERFUL!

Posted by alex on November 04, 2009 at 06:35 PM EST #

Thats so grate! Finally this book is out haha Cant wait to read it and dont forget: Brazil wants the webseries as well ): x

Posted by Carolina on November 04, 2009 at 06:52 PM EST #

Is there going to be a 4th book in the Priviliged series?I hope so!!!

Posted by Frunc on November 05, 2009 at 03:24 PM EST #

yea there is going to be a fourth book, i forget what it's called tho just look it up on Google

Posted by jess on November 05, 2009 at 03:59 PM EST #

Sweet deceit! is the fourth book. I can't wait till Scandal back at Easton! woot woot That means HOPEFULLY more Josh.

Posted by kelsey on November 05, 2009 at 05:32 PM EST #

IT BETTER MEAN MORE JOSH!!

Posted by jess on November 05, 2009 at 06:06 PM EST #

i absolutly love josh! i like how at the end of suspicion, it leaves you wondering what josh REALLY thinks of reed. I LOVE SAWYER!! he and reed would be an adoribale couple, but josh and reed are even better. NO UPTON! he's hot and all, but i cant trust him at all

Posted by justine anna wallace who is the #1 fan lol on November 05, 2009 at 06:37 PM EST #

no upton i dont like him at alll! agreed justine! (btw i'm the #1 fan lol)

Posted by kelsey on November 05, 2009 at 07:22 PM EST #

Oh my god I LOVE Perfect Mistake, but I really don't want Brigit to die, she's my favorite character other than Ariana!!!!!Can't Kaitlynn's plan backfire for once, and move Ariana a step further??????? I can't wait for the next book!!!!!!!!

Posted by Paige on November 05, 2009 at 08:52 PM EST #

kate really, kill bridget? You have got to be kidding... pleasee dont kill her... Turn her out to be fine and she can rat out kaitlynn... Please pleasee dont kill her... if anyone was supposed to die it should have been lexa so ariana and palmer could be together... Bridgit was just beggining a thing with the scolarshipp guyy and i lovee findiing the mistakes you make on the writing in every bbook you mix up names....and pleasee make thee web series avilable in mexicoooo we are dying tooo see itt... Lovve, P

Posted by pau on November 05, 2009 at 09:25 PM EST #

wth pau she made one mistake in one book no one's perfect and she alreayd fixed it anyways.

Posted by lindsey on November 05, 2009 at 09:44 PM EST #

i just bought suspicion and am so excited to start reading it! :D know it's kinda late but my exams are just over and i'm finally free! well, almost. btw, do you all think that i will like the privilege series if i'm not exactly a fan of ariana? is she really bad in the series? i almost got perfect mistake today but wanted to see your comments first, so please do!

Posted by Sue on November 06, 2009 at 11:23 AM EST #

yes, i totally think thomas is still alive!! how awesome it would be if he is!! can't wait to hear more of josh and him if possible! i earnestly hope thomas isn't dead for real...

Posted by Sue on November 06, 2009 at 11:27 AM EST #

Sue, you should read the privilege series but read them in order. have fun reading suspicion

Posted by jess on November 06, 2009 at 11:45 AM EST #

Yeah, I'm sure if my head was bashed in by a love-obsessed ex I'd still be alive and kicking! And heck, even meet my other "ex" on a deserted island! Why not? Come on people, let's use common sense her, shall we?

Posted by KR on November 06, 2009 at 02:21 PM EST #

Ahh got the book like this week finished it in an hour no joke. PLEASE come out with the next book faster. I know it might be hard but DO NOT get writers block.

AHHHHHH PLEASE WRITE MORE BOOKS> and i am from canada so when are more videos coming out. I disagreee with most of the things that are happinging but i love the series so i keep watching. plzplzplzlzplzplzplzpzlzplz post more of them or tell the people who are posting them to post them faster cause candians want to finish the series!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Karrina Jung on November 06, 2009 at 03:39 PM EST #

Posted by P on November 07, 2009 at 03:22 AM EST #

HAHAHA. Oh my goodness! There's been a book after Paradise Lost two months ago! No offense Zoey, but you really need to stay in the thick of things...And she put up the first chapter at the end of July... Karrina Jung - (SPOILER FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T READ PM YET)Kaitlynn doesn't push Adriana down...it's Brigit that she pushes down.

Posted by Allie on November 07, 2009 at 07:55 AM EST #

finally read perfect mistake! :) it was amazing, kate! SPOILER ALERT: SPOILER ALERT: whyd it have to be brigit? :( she was like my favorite character and she was the most innocent! i wish tahira couldve died instead. :P

Posted by Emily <3 on November 07, 2009 at 09:15 AM EST #

P what are you talking about the shopping trip where Brigit calls "Lillian Oswald" Kaitlynn twice? And duh she wears contacts she has to take them out sometimes...

Posted by lindsey on November 07, 2009 at 11:05 AM EST #

*SPOILER ALERT* At Firts I though Brigit was a total snob but then I grew to like her and it pained me that she died D:

Posted by Crystal on November 07, 2009 at 12:16 PM EST #

lindsey, she means that they accidentally put kaitlynn instead of lilly. they mistyped it.

Posted by Emily <3 on November 07, 2009 at 04:47 PM EST #

Kate, can you please(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) make PRIVATE the web series available 2 watch in Canada!!! I'm dying 2 see the books in action!!!! Thanks!!!!!!

Posted by Lane on November 07, 2009 at 04:53 PM EST #

UMMM Lane...it's already available. On MSN Entertainment.

Posted by Julie on November 07, 2009 at 05:21 PM EST #

Emily and P Kate is already aware of this.

Posted by nicole on November 07, 2009 at 06:07 PM EST #

SPOILER**** Can not believe waht happened!!!! KAITLYNN NEEDS TO PAY A PAINFUL TOURTURING PAYBACK!!!! I loved Bridget and kaitlynn did say she was the only one she could stand. So why???? Why not allison or Tira like she ruined a perfect plan. Poor Ariana's now got to deal wit Kailtlynn, Taira knowing her secret and Bridgits death.:(

Posted by Brianne on November 07, 2009 at 06:11 PM EST #

Soo, since I'm a HUGE Private fan, I pretty much know what scenes are where in the book. And since I'm extremely bored right now, I'm holding my "favorite Private moments" marathon. From Private all the way to Suspicion. By myself. With hot chocolate. Just thought I'd share, Kate Brian.

Posted by Julia on November 07, 2009 at 06:58 PM EST #

omg i hate kaitlynn. she makes me so mad i was to see ARIANA be happy. and not have to worry about her. u should seriously kill her off not brigit.

Posted by gabriella on November 07, 2009 at 08:47 PM EST #

@ Julia- That sounds like a good idea! Nothing like going into some of your favorite Private moments to take you back through Private memory lane. Care to share yours? :)

Posted by KR on November 07, 2009 at 09:15 PM EST #

@ KR: Basically all good Rosh moments, funny Gage Coolidge jokes, Billings Girl bonding, and intense scenes like Ariana/Sabine confessing, when Reed found out about Cheyenne and Josh getting dirty ;) I thought that wsa pretty intense, haha. I don't have like any from PL or Suspicion. What about you? :)

Posted by Julia on November 07, 2009 at 09:43 PM EST #

Oh my GOODNESS! Perfect mistake is well...perfect! The ending had me totally taken by surprise. i cant believe Kaitlynn! Ughh, i really wish she would just die of a heart attack or something, anything. It trully is great, Kate. You're an amazing writer. i'm sad the book is over :( i read it in four hours. I cant get enough of Parker, although he reminds me a lot of Josh. Maybe thats why i like him? Thanks for sharing your stories with us, Kate! Ps, i found an error on page 11: it says, "...been on Team Grey and would not (be?) moving into Privilege House." and page 83: "...kept moving, feeling hot an(d?) annoyed and stupid."

What is this talk of a nine month book? what is the nine month book?

Posted by Allie on November 07, 2009 at 11:09 PM EST #

@ Julia- It's hard to pick any! I actually like a lot of Constance and Whit moments (since there are so few), definetly ROSH moments as well, and the bonding between Noelle and Reed. As for Paradise Lost...Sawyer scenes, I guess (because he's so different from the others) and how Dash is trying to win Noelle back (it's quite cute to see her blush and be caught off guard around him).

Posted by KR on November 07, 2009 at 11:14 PM EST #

Okay, I haven't finished the book yet (taking my time on this one, mother's getting mad about how I finish books in a day) but I know the ending because I have no selfcontrol of turning away from spoiler alerts or flipping to the backpage. *Spoiler Alert* May I ask why are you killing Brigit off? No! She's my favourite! And the only girl who brings happiness into the book! Honestly, killing her off, it will just be so sad! She was the first person to accept Ari! No no no! Bring her back! You can survive from breaking your neck, no? Like don’t you have a better chance of living than dying? Like maybe her eyes are closed since she’s knocked out! Please, please don’t let her die! Kill of Sommie, Maria, or Lexa! But not Brigit! Oh and please kill of Kaitlynn. I swear I fill like jumping in the book and strangling her myself! Why in the world did you name her after yourself? But not Brigit!

Posted by Steffie on November 08, 2009 at 12:29 AM EST #

P.S. The book is amazing so far, and I can barely resist the urge to stay up all night reading it!

Posted by Steffie on November 08, 2009 at 12:30 AM EST #

i still haven't started it because i can't find it any were. but can't wait to read it

Posted by lisa marie vinas on November 08, 2009 at 12:48 AM EST #

@jess thanks for the comment. :) i just wanna know, which book among the three is the best? idt i can get all of them unfortunately =/ plus i'd probably prefer private...

Posted by Sue on November 08, 2009 at 05:41 AM EST #

***SPOILERS ALERT*** i finally finished reading suspicion!! i started yesterday and just finished it; all in all i took about 5 hours. :D i actually feel good for following others' advice not to read it too fast. all the drama is too much to absorb in a short period of time! anyway, i was so shocked when i read that billings was torn down!!! why, kate? that was one of the main and most interesting elements of the story. =/ anyhow, i can't wait to put my hands on scandal. :D btw, here's an advice to others: NVR read spoilers (although this is a spoiler...lol)! gah, the novel would have been more interesting if i hadn't known that mrs. ryan was the attempted murderer of reed!

Posted by Sue on November 08, 2009 at 05:48 AM EST #

@Allie : We have absolutely no idea about the 9 month question Kate Brian has been asking us. Hopefully, she'll hint at it soon. Though, I think a lot of people are leaning towards the new book concept(:P

Ariana does not deserve this life. She doesn't deserve Palmer and the friends that she has gained throughout her "new life". -Sam

sue, perfect mistake is the best, but if you read it with out reading the first to it wont make any seance

Posted by jess on November 08, 2009 at 01:14 PM EST #

@Allie: Thanks, but is till kinda dont get it...why is Kate asking everyone if she's writing it? Where is she asking all this, i never see anything everyone is talking about! what new book concept?

Posted by Allie on November 08, 2009 at 01:48 PM EST #

@Allie: I don't know. In one of her blogs she was like "TUNE IN!" Haha I have absolutely no idea. everyone thinks she's writing a new book but idk. hopefully she'll tell us soonnn! kate was asking people what you thought happened in the nine months. from when reed went back to easton during spring semester all the way up to the first day of junior year. she was basically like "get creative!"

Posted by Allie on November 08, 2009 at 01:53 PM EST #

I just got finished reading it - WOW - I was breathless!! I CANNOT wait for the next one to come out!! (Hurry up!) :)

Posted by Kathleen on November 08, 2009 at 03:02 PM EST #

lindsay i know she has to take off the lenses...but then palmer saw her with her blue eyes.. because right after kate wrote about ariana saw herself in the mirror with her icy blue eyes palmer arrives...

Posted by P on November 08, 2009 at 03:34 PM EST #

I just have something to say thats been bugging me. WHY does kaitlynn think she can tell Ariana what to do? because she knows her secret? well ariana knows kaitlynn's secret too ! they both have something on each other, so Ariana doesnt have to do everything she says!

Posted by rose on November 08, 2009 at 03:45 PM EST #

Kate your books are GREAT! I cant wait for Scandal and Sweet Deciet... Do you know how many are going to be in each series yet tho??

@P: Ari now has blue eyes. Remember? Briana Lea has blue eyes, though Ari but on green contacts as Emma. Now that she Ana, she has her blue eyes back.

Posted by Steffie on November 08, 2009 at 07:54 PM EST #

Steffie is right i was just gunna say the same thing. She has blue eyes and Auburn hair for Briana Leigh and Green eyes and i forgot hair for Emma.

Posted by lindsey on November 08, 2009 at 08:02 PM EST #

Kaitlyn needs to die. Immeaditily. As much as i hated Ariana in private im rootinf for her in privledged. She just wants to start over and shes trying really hard to change. She just wants her life back like anyone else would. Besides i LOVE her and Palmer together and i can just tell Kaitlyn is going to screw that up. So please? can Kaitlyn just die? or better yet.. GO BACK TO BRENDA T!!! by the way i lovedd the book! AMAZING AS ALWAYS!

Hey Kate, i was so glad when i got perfect mistake. The beginning of it was slow (unlike the others) but then i really got into it. I just finished it and i thought it was great BUT, now i want to know when the next privilege book comes out? which i'm sure alot of people are asking. do you think you would be able to put it on your website somewhere?

Posted by SM :) on November 09, 2009 at 07:30 PM EST #

Posted by marycruz on November 09, 2009 at 10:27 PM EST #

Hello. Hmmmm... I don't know if any ones noticed, but i was reading perfect mistake and i realized that on pages 149 and 150 Brigit calls Kaitlynn by her real name, not by the name she knows her as. Then goes back to calling her Lillian. I was so confused! Is this a typo or does brigit know who she is? Ahhh. I like the book though. :D

@jess lol yea, i guess part of the novel wouldn't...but the first private novel i ever read, which was in this year, was confessions n that made me so interested in the series haha. to those who have read every private novel, what would you rate these books: invitation only, untouchable, inner circle and revelation? i have yet to read them. oh, and last christmas as well - i can't find it anywhere. =/

Posted by Sue on November 10, 2009 at 10:15 AM EST #

dear kate, i really hope you will try your best to make the private web series available in malaysia! i'm definitely eager to watch it no matter what others say about it. :)

Posted by Sue on November 10, 2009 at 12:28 PM EST #

SPOILER: Alright Kate so I am mildly (and by that I mean completely) addicted to your books, both the PRIVATE & the PRIVILEGE series, however your main characters drive me up a wall.. I was hoping that Ariana would be more clever or at least she'd be stealthy. Every attempt she has made in the last two books has fallen through; getting rid of Kaitlynn and protecting her friends. Why “Briana Leigh” does not just tell the administration she suspects "Lillian Oswald" is really her stalker Kaitlynn Nottingham is beyond me. Considering the only ties APH has to Lillian is money, it doesn't make sense they would protect her. Besides, they wouldn't necessarily investigate Ana. I suppose it wouldn't make for a good book, but it also would be less infuriating than seeing Ariana flounder in her own incapability; this is the girl who won Firsts at Easton? Really? She can't seem to do anything for herself. Anyways, love your books just wish your characters drove me less crazy sometimes.

Posted by Bri on November 12, 2009 at 08:18 PM EST #

I don't know why Ariana keeps not killing Kaitlynn when she gets opportunities-the knife, the pillow etc. All Ariana would have to do is dump the body in the Potomac and tell everyone that she just vanished.

Posted by Pollie on November 15, 2009 at 07:33 AM EST #

KATE KATE KATE KATE KATE KATE:READ THIS!!!!!heyyy it was good:) read it like the day it came out.lol. but all the death and freaky kaitlyn stuff freaks me out:/ but i still read.haha. oh and i lived ex-mas!!!!! it was sooooo gooood!!!!!!!!!

Posted by erin on November 17, 2009 at 06:22 PM EST #

hey ya but it kinda scares me that ariana thinks she isnt a phsyco...shes almost as bad as kaitlyn! ariana's own anger management doesnt make it ok to kill people!

Posted by erin on November 17, 2009 at 06:23 PM EST #

This book was CRAZY good, and it was a real page turner!! MY only complaint was that it was short, haha. I didn't want it to end!!! Keep'em coming!!!!

Posted by Christa on November 17, 2009 at 11:05 PM EST #

Just wanted to say loved the book! okay i get y Kaitlynn killed brigit it would hurt Ariana the worst because if soomie died then ariana would be the smartest in the class and that would only help ariana, Not maria because her and Ariana are not that close, & not Lexa because she could call Ariana out on something that shes wrong about on Briana Leigh! i get that! any how hope palmer isint to mad! And cant wait for Scandle!

Posted by Shelby on November 24, 2009 at 07:07 PM EST #

ahh i so want ariana to just kill kaitlynn already! shes so freaking annoying! she just ruins everything.

Posted by Moni on November 24, 2009 at 08:16 PM EST #

I loved this book! But on page 149, there's a typo.. someone uses Kaitlynn's real name instead of "Lillian"!

Posted by Becca on November 27, 2009 at 06:19 PM EST #

@Rose I was thinking the EXACT same thing...but in one of the books (i forgot which one) Ariana told Kaitlynn that exact same thing, and Kaitlynn was like, "Yeah, but you've killed since you've escaped from Brenda T., and all I've done was escape, so if you tell my secret I'll tell yours." That's not exactly what she said, but you get the idea.

Posted by Becca on November 27, 2009 at 06:23 PM EST #

Guys, when you question why Ariana "stared into her icy blue eyes" before hooking up with Palmer, it's because SHE HAS BLUE EYES. Yes, she got green lenses, but does no one remember when she had to take them out for her driver's license picture? Briana Leigh had blue eyes, therefor so does Ariana.

Posted by Annabelle on November 27, 2009 at 06:42 PM EST #

I HATED THE ENDING!!!! u need 2 plz put a preview of the next book online! pleeeaasseee!

I was reading the new Privilege book and at page 186 a bunch of pages are just missing (not fallen out or ripped out, they just aren't there) until page 203. Does anything major happen during that skip in my book? o_o

Posted by Kelly on December 02, 2009 at 08:21 PM EST #

@Kelly. Nothing REALLY interesting. Noelle told Reed she should room with her this year. Sawyer and Graham announced that they will be going to Easton and their father will be the new principle. Upton and Reed said "Goodbye for now" and Reed told Upton that they should just wait and see what happens, kinda like a break up but not really. He texted her on the plane ride home and all, she was giddy and stuff. Thats about it, hope it helped:)

Posted by Allie on December 06, 2009 at 11:52 PM EST #

Is there going to be another book to this series ? because i can't wait for it to come out ! LMK when :)

Posted by Keisha on December 20, 2009 at 03:46 AM EST #

omg lindsey i totally agree can you guys please please please post a review of scandal. I have fallen in love with theses books since a friend refered it to me there soooo interesting and addicting lol. right now am reading beautiful disaster and then am going to read perfect mistake.. I can't wait for scandal. AHhhh omg lol cant wait.

Posted by Jasmine on December 30, 2009 at 06:25 PM EST #

omg lindsey and the others i think ur gona be happy i hve a link to a review of scandal. sorry i koe its a spolier but i have to do it its sooooooo good and hot i think its the best one of allll omg here it is, http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6693415-scandal

Posted by Jasmine on December 30, 2009 at 06:29 PM EST #

Ok, I agree with Rose and Becca. Kaitlynn is always menacing Arianna to spill her secret, so why doesn't Arianna threaten her back? Either way, if one goes down so does the other. Arianna should just kill Kaitlynn and dump her body somewhere! And I hate the fact that everytime Arianna accomplishes something, Kaitlynn always messes it up! For once, just for once I wish that Arianna would screw Kaitlynn over. Just to show "Lillian" that even she gets duped. I felt bad for Brigit dying, but I already knew that it was going to be her. Hey, who else thinks that by the end of the series Arianna's secret's gonna be let out?

Posted by Maria on January 07, 2010 at 05:15 PM EST #

it took me awhile to get 'perfect mistake" but i finally did, and it was yet another great book! and a few of the others have already mentioned the one HUGE mistake on page 149 when Brigit refers to "Lily" as Kaitlynn; i had to read the line several times before realizing it was just a typo! the ending was definitely a shocker, though i also thought it ended too soon, but that only makes me wonder when the next one will be out! any idea? can't wait, keep these and the 'private' books coming!

Posted by reci on January 17, 2010 at 11:32 PM EST #

*SPOILER* OMG how could you kill Brigit off its not fair i like her alot. I agree with alot of what the others are saying Katlynn needs to go someway somehow, she drives me crazy enough to not want to read anymore. Kill her off or send her back to Brenda T. I agree Ariana is a little crazy but I understand her, even if she is a little stupid. Ariana's problem is Katlynn attacks her in her sleep so why not move into the "haunted room" you mention at the beginning. I found part of the book confusing with the typos about Lillian being refered to as Katlynn, but now that I know its a typo it doesnt bug me. Pretty good book Kate, but I think Private is better by far

Posted by Jenny on January 27, 2010 at 08:30 PM EST #

I absolutely loved this book! Ever since my best friend and I read these, our nicknames for eachother are 'Ariana' (mine) and 'Noelle' (hers) because those were our favorites! I can't wait for Scandal, Sweet Decieit, and Vanished! I love Palmer, too!

Posted by Ariana on February 27, 2010 at 07:34 PM EST #

I really loved this series. I seem to always forget that Arianna is a heratless ice-queen and that she killed many people without blinking an eye. She sort of reminds me of Light Yagami (Death Note) but she's not a genius... ***Spoiler*** I think I was only excited for the Palmer/Arianna romance scenes. I can't help but look forward to his appearances. And read them over, and over, and over :D Can you give us more of these moments, please? He really is a total hottie. ...Evelyn...

Posted by Evelyn on May 01, 2010 at 08:31 PM EDT #

OMG!!!! Thats creepy. i know an Ariana (shes mexican though) and shes so creepy and quiet and everyone at my school thinks shes a murder but whatever and my name is Briana Covington but my middle name is Alexis.. ahh well. SPOILER ALERT I hate Kaitlynn. she killed my favorite character! but i LOVE the Ariana/Palmer thing, but it was pretty shallow when Ariana hooked up with him when she knew Lexa still liked him. if i was Lexa, i would mess Ariana up, then get Palmer back.. just saying. AND I CANT WAIT FOR VANISHED! EXACTLY ONE MORE MONTH!
