PRIVATE - The Official Site

FIRST COMMENT. WOOT! I was not expecting a new blog at all.

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 22, 2010 at 03:18 PM EST #

I LOVED THAT PART when I re-read the first book after finishing the 10th, I felt so sad that Thomas is dead :(

Posted by Katy on January 22, 2010 at 03:23 PM EST #

yeeah I remember that, soo long ago! ... when Thomas was still alive :( I never would have thought while reading that book for the first time that everything that's happened up until now ever would have happened! I like these reminiscing moments (: when everything was so much simpler for Reed and Easton! Keep the memories coming!

Posted by sana on January 22, 2010 at 03:27 PM EST #

Oh, wow. That's one of my favorite Thomas-Reed moments. I'm still all up for those two lovebirds if he just hadn't had to die :/ If he mysteriously came back to life and still loved Reed, I'm jumping from Sawyer all the way back to Thomas XD Another one of my favorite Thomas-Reed moment was at the dance when they first kissed ^.^ ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on January 22, 2010 at 03:50 PM EST #

woo 5th comment! haha that is definitely one of my favorite moments in private! reeds first day

Posted by jane on January 22, 2010 at 03:55 PM EST #

I've always loved the scenes with Josh and Reed. Especially that one in the beggining of Inner Circle (I think). When Josh kisses Reed and tells her he wants to kiss every part of her (that she'll let him) by the end of two weeks i think? I always thought that part was cute :)

Posted by Shayna on January 22, 2010 at 03:55 PM EST #

i miss thomas!! that is one of my favorite quotes!! but if he hadnt left reed might not hav gotten together with josh which would be sad bcuz they r amazing together! one of my fav moments was wen noelle told reed that she's like her little sis!! one of the only times seeing noelle truely open up!

Posted by julia on January 22, 2010 at 04:00 PM EST #

guys, pleaseeeeeee, help me, i'm freaking out... realy, in my country have only the first book of private and i loveeeeeee the book,so i spend my time searching about spoilers..could you please help me to understand the private novel?? tell me evrithing you now

Posted by Anna on January 22, 2010 at 04:51 PM EST #

Oh my gosh, I love it when you blog a lot! I really love that quote because Thomas really understood her right off the bat. You can already tell there's something going on :) whenever Reed thinks about Thomas i miss him too! I like it when she does though! And when I read Last Christmas I really, REALLY missed him! Haha, I keep bringing up Last Christmas, but I really loved that book! I love all the books though :) Most of yall have probably read Last Christmas, but if you haven't you really should! (:

Posted by Megan on January 22, 2010 at 05:18 PM EST #

Oh and @Katie Mac, I just read your comment from yesterday and that's exactly how i felt about it! hahaha :) it was an adrenaline rush the ENTIRE book! I loved it!

Posted by Megan on January 22, 2010 at 05:20 PM EST #

That is my favorite quote ever!!!!! I loved their banter.

Posted by Brienna on January 22, 2010 at 05:29 PM EST #

this was my favorite part!!! I was sooo excited when they met!!!! I was so sad when I found out that thomas was dead! =(

Posted by lizzzz =) on January 22, 2010 at 05:29 PM EST #

Gee, now I'm cryingggg! I miss Thomas so much! I know he was in SUSPICION, but still.:*( I cry ever time I read the books. My favortie part is when Thomas tells Ariana Reed's everything and she isn't. With Josh,...When they're playing soccer in UNTOUCHABLE...ah. The good times

Posted by Tyra ann on January 22, 2010 at 05:40 PM EST #

Awe that kinda makes me miss thomas. haha but I LOOVE what reed says after that. shes so funny. And I'm actually doing a book report on PRIVATE right now, so its nice that we're looking back. wow, here we are, ten books later. We've all come such a long way. Keep them coming Kate! And thanks for blogging again, these blogs are really the cherry on top for me.

Posted by Brina on January 22, 2010 at 05:44 PM EST #

OK maybe another moment that made me cry (a lot ^^) was in suspicion when Reed was on the deserted island and alucinated about Thomas, Josh and Upton and when she get off of it she see Thomas wave goodbye at her that was SOOOO sad!!!

Posted by Ariane on January 22, 2010 at 05:58 PM EST #

I haven't read the first book in 4ever! I miss Thomas soooooo much! I think you should put up quotes from thomas, josh, billings girls, and well everything that is sweet/romantic/funny :)

Posted by Jordan on January 22, 2010 at 06:01 PM EST #

Oh and please put an extract chapter of Scandal that would be the most amazing thing that could happen!!!!

Posted by Ariane on January 22, 2010 at 06:07 PM EST #

"Don't mind her, we're still working out the kinks," Noelle said. What's your name?" "Reed," I said. "I'm Noelle. This is Kiran and Taylor and Ariana," she said. "Hi," I said. "Now that you know who we are, maybe you can have a little respect and quit licking the glass." ||| Noelle stood up and hugged herself, as if she'd just gotten a chill. "I don't know. Maybe it's because you're kind of like the little sister I never had. You're supposed to mess with your little sister, right?" she joked halfheartedly. <<<Look how far they've come. :)

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 22, 2010 at 06:18 PM EST #

Can I just add that the cover models on books PRIVATE - CONFESSION, they look like true Billings Girls? They just seem more mature and sophisicated and older. The other ones don't really seem like BG to me for some reason.

Posted by Allie on January 22, 2010 at 06:20 PM EST #

Allie that totally reminds me, but does anyone else find the girl on the cover of Paradise Lost a little creepy? The redhead. and lol im pretty sure shes on the back of Suspicion too. But on Paradise lost she looks creepier, prob because of that green dress and scarf. I think shes suppost to be Mrs Ryan or something

Posted by Brina on January 22, 2010 at 06:26 PM EST #

No meu país têm apenas o primeiro livro, por isso estou em pânico, porque eu quero saber o que aconteceu próximo .. mas eu simplesmente não acredito .. OMG, Thomas está morto? Quero dizer, palheta e Thomas eram perfeitos juntos .. mento era para ser .. como é que ele morreu? caras, por favor me ajude a entender o que aconteceu com a palheta, eu amo o primeiro livro ..

Posted by Anna on January 22, 2010 at 06:34 PM EST #

Anna - Do you speak English?

Posted by Allie on January 22, 2010 at 06:43 PM EST #

haha okay a few not sure how accurate this is but you get this jist(: No, I wasn't here to do this. I got up and left my half gazed and probably very aroused, boyfriend on his bed. "What? Did I? Are you? What?" "This isn't what I came for." Josh sat with his legs hanging off the sides of his bed and looked up at me. I took a deep breath in and when I let it out, I breathed, "Josh, I love you." XD

Posted by Taylorrrrrrr <3 on January 22, 2010 at 06:46 PM EST #

JOSH! i love when josh was there for reed after thomas went missing he was so sweet! i love when thomas came to reeds room the morning after the party in the woods it showed that he didnt want to be a jerk

Posted by katie mac on January 22, 2010 at 06:47 PM EST #

Awwwww i forgot about that quote! That is soo cutee,i lovedd thomas i wish there was some majical way he could come back even for just a day. And im soooo excited for the josh quotes!!! He and Reed are made for eachother! They need to be together or i will be sooo devastated! I loved when Thomas apparated on the island reed was stranded on, it was soo peculiar but so magical at the same time!!! I still wonder how that water bottle somehow appeared on the island...

Posted by Kerri on January 22, 2010 at 06:53 PM EST #

omg! i let my friend borrow the first Private book like 3 months ago and she still hasnt given it back!

Posted by katie mac on January 22, 2010 at 06:58 PM EST #

I loved Thomas!, i never really realized how much i miss him, now since im thinking about it.....i miss him soo much!! I totally forgot about that quote but now reading it i remember everything about that scene!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Allyssa on January 22, 2010 at 07:18 PM EST #

ohj my gosh, i think that's the sweetest thomas EVER was. he was so hardcore on the outside, but a few times he could be sweet. i kind of miss thomas. i love when reed is rescued by upton in suspicion and they're driving away in th eboat, and shes sees thomas waving goodbye. so sweet! <3 @ Julie Hayes, the quote when noelles tyalking about taylor and the 'working out the kinks', i read that yesterday and it made me ctack up. and i love the part when noelle calls reed her lil sis!

Posted by jillian (: on January 22, 2010 at 07:23 PM EST #

Taylorrrrrr, that is my favorite part in the private series with josh and reed, and i love the moments when josh and reed are making up from a fight. i like all the moments with thomas whenever he wasn't drunk and was fully aware of what he was doing, i kinda hated reed in the first book for the way she treated thomas and was more concerned about the billings girls, because if she hadn't trying to please them so much then thomas wouldnt have yelled at her at the bonfire, noelle kiran and ariana wouldnt have kidnapped him and ariana wouldnt have had the chance to kill him.

Posted by genelle on January 22, 2010 at 07:24 PM EST #

anna- can you please translate? because when i saw your comment my mind went "what?"

Posted by genelle on January 22, 2010 at 07:26 PM EST #

I miss thomas! he was soo great, but I have always liked whatever guy reed is interested in... My favorite moment is when reed figured out that sabine was ariana's sister and she confronted her. Soo dramatic but so suspenseful! Kate just knows how to make the simplest things memorable :)

Posted by CarolineL on January 22, 2010 at 07:26 PM EST #

Ow, I'm sorry.. I forgot to translate,I live in brazil and here have just the first book of private, and you guys are saying that thomas is dead.. and I want to know how did it happen..I totaly loved the first book and I want to know what happen next..

Posted by Anna on January 22, 2010 at 07:44 PM EST #

Ohhh, want to know a sad part in Confessions? At the end, with Rosh. Even though the night before, they had a huge fight, and the day Reed was going to leave, Josh ditched his final just to tell her good-bye and sorry. And she was telling him how she couldn't tell with the drama. He was like, "But I l-" And she was like "Don't. Just don't." Then in her head, she was like The last guy who told me that ended up dead. I cried at that scene. Even after reading it over 10 times since I got Confessions. A sad song I was listening to really added to the scene. Haha.

Posted by Allie on January 22, 2010 at 09:47 PM EST #

Omg guys i love when reed is trapped on the island and thomas gets her the water or well leads her too it and hes like dont worry your not dead and when she had the dream the 2nd day on the island and she was on the boat with thomas josh and upton and she wanted the star it was so sweet except in the end when ariana appeared but seeing reed with her the three guys she loves was kinda cool

Posted by katie mac on January 22, 2010 at 10:28 PM EST #

Omg i loooove Thomas, i was so sad when he died. My fav is when Reed and Josh have their loooong overdue moment when Ivy is in the hospital. Even though the situation was bad lol you finally see that Josh never stopped loving Reed. I hope Reed and Josh get back together...i love them.

Posted by Jane on January 22, 2010 at 11:12 PM EST #

i've always loved thomas. he was willing to change for reed. i kno it was best for the series that he died but he was a sweetheart. and that quote up there, well i love reeds response. She's so fiesty! hahahaha

Posted by Isabel on January 23, 2010 at 01:15 AM EST #

I dont know you guys, for some reason, I just dont believe that Thomas would've changed. But I guess we'll never know. And oh my gosh, I just got back from watching Avatar. It was ah-maz-ing! I totally loved it and I'm usually not into the whole fantasy world thing. But this movie is an absolute must see. BTW 47 DAYS LEFT TILL SCANDAL :D

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 01:49 AM EST #

omg yeah, i do love thomas although he was a druggie and i wish he were never dead. well, who knows that thomas probably had an unknown twin bro too and he hadn't been dead? hahaha. anyway, i would loveeeeeeeee josh and reed to get back together. <3

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 02:53 AM EST #

omg, one of my friends on fb answered a ques abt me: do you think sue yan can shoot someone?" and the answer was, "yes"! omg. i wonder who said that but i don't have enough silver coins. jsyk, i'm nowhere near that insane lol.

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 02:57 AM EST #

THOMAS! i miss him so much. It's amazing how hooked up get to one character in a book. Huh? Especially Thomas. He's HAWT. I just pretend he's not dead, it makes me feel better!

Posted by Tyra ann on January 23, 2010 at 03:32 AM EST #

haha. i'm so bored coz i'm basically the only one online. ><

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 03:45 AM EST #

People are going to kill me for this ! but i was never a fan of thomas (THERE I SAID IT) lol. well actually i love the guy ? i just hate the part where he hurts arianna (though shes creepy) but in her 'love life' i could understand where shes coming from ? she loved someone who loved someone else ? any of you guys know how much that hurts ?? .. but hey ? its thomas pearson were talking about here ? the guy is Irresistible ! ! lol

Posted by chrisy on January 23, 2010 at 06:46 AM EST #

Chrisy - Your comment made no sense. First you say you're not a fan of Thomas, then you go off and tell us that you love him and hes irrisistable...huh? Brina- I LOVED Avatar. When I saw the trailer, I thought it was going to be some lame, sci-fi movie with blue creatures in it, but then my friends started telling me the movie was awesome. It definitely didn't disappoint me. It was SOOO GOOD. Did you watch it in 3D? I did :)

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 23, 2010 at 08:53 AM EST #

@chrisy yeah, what did you mean? lol. @julie hayes what do you rate the movie? many of my friends watched the movie but i didn't. haha

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 09:19 AM EST #

I loved Thomas...I wish he could come back :( Btw Kate, sorry to nag, but do you have any idea if the rest of the world (UK!) will be able to watch the rest of the private web series anytime soon? XXX

Posted by Em X on January 23, 2010 at 09:49 AM EST #

Sue - 1 being the worst, 10 being the absolute best, I'd say 9 or 9.5 :)

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 23, 2010 at 10:55 AM EST #

all i have to say is reed cn have sawyer becuse josh is mine:)

Posted by luna on January 23, 2010 at 11:50 AM EST #

@julie hayes oo. i might watch it on the dvd then. a pirated one though. haha. @luna hahaha if you ask me, sometimes i feel as though i were reed so that's okay for me.

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 12:15 PM EST #

@ Luna: Sweetheart...back off my man! LOL. j/k you can have him. I'm all about Upton (The Upton in SUSPICION, the one that loves Reed and no one else) Avatar? Did anyone see it? Hey! Do you guys Remember in Confessions when Natasha gave Reed a book called 'The Lovely Bones'? Or was she reading it (natasha) IDK. Imma go look!

Posted by Tyra ann on January 23, 2010 at 12:27 PM EST #

Yeah, I heard the book was good but the movie was bad. Haha. Haven't read/watched either.

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 23, 2010 at 12:30 PM EST #

neither have I. It seemed kind of weird. It was in UNTOUCHABLE, not CONFESSIONS

Posted by Tyra ann on January 23, 2010 at 12:37 PM EST #

Yep, page 182. I have all the books on my dresser. All my favorite parts are bookmarked with yellow stickies. Blue for sad, and pink for weird

Posted by Tyra ann on January 23, 2010 at 12:44 PM EST #

Hahaha oh my goodness, you mark them? That's pretty cool. I actually remember which page/the whereabouts of certain scenes. My friends are always like HOW DO YOU DO THAT? Haha.

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 23, 2010 at 12:52 PM EST #

Yeah. I kinda already know where things are. I just like to have them bookmarked. Like on page 59. They spell Vienna's name wrong. It's spelled Vienne(: I know lots more, but that's the first that came to mind!

Posted by Tyra ann on January 23, 2010 at 12:56 PM EST #

Hey, random question, does anyone know when Sweet Deceit comes out??? I know scandal is out march 9th but i need something good to read before then! and perfect mistake ended with such a cliffhanger!

Posted by CarolineL on January 23, 2010 at 12:57 PM EST #

Sweet Deceit comes out in June, same as Perfect Mistake!

Posted by Tyra ann on January 23, 2010 at 12:59 PM EST #

June!? That's so far away!! I guess I can handle that, i was just hoping it would be a little sooner. :/ thanks for the info!

Posted by CarolineL on January 23, 2010 at 01:02 PM EST #

So I'm extremely bored, and I decided to Google the Billings Girl's names. I typed in Noelle Lange, and someone asked a question that was like, "HOW DO YOU ACT AND DRESS LIKE NOELLE LANGE FROM PRIVATE?" Hahahaha, I thought that was funny, considering it tells all in the books.

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 23, 2010 at 01:11 PM EST #

THOMAS IS SO HOT!!!!!!!! i have SO MANY fave private moments, but since were talkin bout thomas, ill stick 2 this subject :)**spoiler atlert!! sort of?** "heard the click as the cap released from its plastic band....but i was afraid. afraid that i would lift the bottle to my lips and the whole thing would vanish. 'here. i'll help you,' thomas said. he lifted the bottle to my lips and down my throat.......i felt a chill and looked around. 'thanks,' i said, just in case. 'i'm glad you're watching over me.' " i actually cried in this part!!!! cuz its SO SAD wat happened 2 thomas...nd he loved her so much. nd now...hes gone :'(

Posted by kimella on January 23, 2010 at 01:55 PM EST #

hhaha julie!! thats funny, since the books r self-explanatory. :P

Posted by kimella on January 23, 2010 at 01:57 PM EST #

my fav noelle/reed moment is when noelle comes back after reed gets elected pres of billings and saids, well, i can't think of anyone more perfect than reed, or something like that.

Posted by mckenna on January 23, 2010 at 02:09 PM EST #

Julie Hayes, yeah we saw it in 3-D. It was awesome, it had my heart racing at some parts and it had me completley mellow at other parts. It kinda made me feel how the guy felt at one point, about how life on Earth didnt seem real. And OMG why didnt anyone tell me about marking the pages idea! I usually spend like 20 minutes looking for a part in one of the books, just to reread it out of boredom.

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 02:10 PM EST #

oh, also, i cried SOSOSOSO much in the part wen reed has the dream bout reaching 4 the star...n it was so sweet seein all thomas, josh, n upton gettin along as if they were all dating her at the same time <3 " 'you are the most beautiful girl i have ever seen.' i turned around and smiled at thomas pearson as he stepped up to the rail next to me....'i love you, reed. you're the only girl i ever loved.'....thomas smiled, then looked at something over my shoulder.'hey,' josh said. he leaned in and touched his lips to mine. 'you love me, too,' i told him. 'of course i do,' he said, his hand sliding up under my hair. 'i just had to do what was right. you know that.' 'she does. she's fine,' upton said, joining us....upton slipped his hand into mine, our fingers intertwined."

Posted by kimella on January 23, 2010 at 02:11 PM EST #

oh and pfft. You all can have your josh and Thomas and upton. But Sawyer is MINE, im willing to rock, paper, scisors for him. :D

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 02:13 PM EST #

can't wait till kate posts teaser chap. i look everyday just to see if she did. pls hurry up.

Posted by mckenna on January 23, 2010 at 02:14 PM EST #

**kimella's long comment, continued** "i stood on my toes--for some reason i was wearing only one shoe--and stretched my fingers, reaching...reaching...reaching....'reed, what are you doing?' thomas asked, and amused smile playing on his lips. 'don't. you're going to fall,' upton warned. 'don't bother, man,' josh said, slapping upton on the back. 'there's no stopping her when she gets like this.' " love that, its so sweet n touching, but makes me really nostalgic n sad :(

Posted by kimella on January 23, 2010 at 02:16 PM EST #

i dont want reed to get together with sawyer

Posted by mckenna on January 23, 2010 at 02:17 PM EST #

btw Chissy, I kinda feel bad for saying this, but I agree with you. I never liked thomas either. I mean when you think about it, Thomas was only actually there for the first book. He was a druggie, he admited to have a problem with drinking, he hurt reed. He just wasnt good for her! and his personality just got me mad. I would never waste my time with someone as full of themselves as him. ahaha Thomas fans, do not hate me for saying that. It doesnt mean I dont miss him, and that I dont feel bad that he had to (spoiler---------) die.

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 02:17 PM EST #

how come reed is the only one who can tame the players

Posted by Allie on January 23, 2010 at 02:20 PM EST #

Oh, while you guys fight over Sawyer, I'd just like to say that Gage is mine.

Posted by Allie on January 23, 2010 at 02:21 PM EST #

y do you want gage

Posted by mckenna on January 23, 2010 at 02:22 PM EST #

ahahahahahahah thomas pearsona comment. That made my day! haha and Kimella, oooh girlie bring it on! oh and I meant to say 'crissy' not 'chissy'

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 02:22 PM EST #

Something tells me a lot of my comments havent been posted since i just found out that they cant be over 100 characters long :S

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 02:46 PM EST #

SPOILER!! "She's everything!" Thomas yelled. He lunged forward, his chest heaving. "Don't you get? She's everything you're not, Ariana. I love her" Those were some of the last words that Thomas Pearson, raging drinker, **** dealer, bad boy, ever said. And unfortunately he was dense enough to say the exact things that were the main reason of his heath. He just had to say the exact things that he should have known would get him killed. And when he was defenceless, too! And maybe even with that she would have let him live.

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 02:57 PM EST #

Continued! Maybe it was the fact that he was going to go to the police that pushed Ariana over the edge. He could have lied. And then once he was free and back at campus, he could easily sneak away and go to the police. It would have been much easier that way. And though I came to really and truly love Thomas Pearson, I understand why you killed him off. Because, as much as I've come to love Josh as well, if Thomas was still living and breathing, my vote for him would have never have been for Josh

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 02:59 PM EST #

Waittt, I totally meant to say Upton. I have no idea why I wrote Gage. Sorry about that.

Posted by Allie on January 23, 2010 at 03:00 PM EST #

Cotinued! If you get what I mean by that. I never would have wanted her to be with Josh as long as Thomas was alive. Because I really came to love and understand Thomas during the two hundred and something pages of the first book. he broke my heart in two when he fell for Reed Brennan, but then he broke into five billion when he said the two exact things that he really should have known would cause Ariana to kill him. *You never know what people are capable of until they're pushed to their edge.*

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 03:00 PM EST #

Ah. The sexy Thomas Pearson. I miss him so much. Josh was there to comfort her, and that was nice. He was a real friend to Reed. He didn't keep secrets from her (besides the pills). I don't miss Josh as much Thomas. Thomas loved Reed, and she never got to balance it out. Josh...they had their time together. I know, so did she and Thomas, but it just wasn't long enuf.

Posted by Tyra ann on January 23, 2010 at 03:01 PM EST #

My name's Briana Leigh and I'm a pshyco who is utterly annoyed with Kaitlynn Nottingham's behavior. Your turn.

Posted by Briana Leigh Covington on January 23, 2010 at 03:02 PM EST #

Continued! Yes I know it's long... Goodbye, Thomas Pearson. You were loved by many even though my best friend hated your guts and was happy when you died, which when she said this I promptly smacked her over the head because of. We will miss you and always cherish your memory.

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 03:02 PM EST #

Well, we don't know exactly if Thomas loved Reed or not.

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 23, 2010 at 03:02 PM EST #

In conclusion... Thank you, Kate, for creating such a character that could capture our hearts in a way that may you want to throw the book at the wall and hide under the covers forever when you found out he was dead. And thank you for continuing this series, which I expect you to do until you are dead! :) Can't wait for Scandal! Note! All of my posts were spoilers! So don't read them if you aren't caught up with the series!

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 03:04 PM EST #

Julie: Didn't you Read last Xmas? He said he loved her. Or was he just drunk?

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 03:30 PM EST #

Tyra Ann- Yeah, I did. He still could have been drunk, though, because he WAS drunk when the BGs taunted him.

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 23, 2010 at 03:34 PM EST #

@ Brina.. about sawyer and the rock, paper, scissors thing, one wo three **PAPER! and you better pick rock cuz sawyers mine!! :) and everyone thomas didn't treat reed well, and he wasn't even there for a one entire book. he went missing before the end of the first one!

Posted by jillian (: on January 23, 2010 at 03:41 PM EST #

Jillian, one two three *SCISSORS* ooooh I win :) ahaha. and Jillian, EXCATLY. like wow he was barley there, so I dont know how everyone can just miss him. He was a pretty bad boyfriend.

HE was! he drank, was a druggie, pushed reed to the ground, and he was only sweet to her like, what? twice? at the beginning and when he cried. that was IT. i'm sorry to those of you who love and miss thomas, even though he wasnt there an entire book, but i didnt like him. please dont hate me!

Posted by jillian (: on January 23, 2010 at 04:04 PM EST #

i don't hate you jillian (: acually i understand why you don't like thomas =).... for me i loved thomas, he was sweet some times. omg and the part in the woods was another one of my favorite moments, as you can tell i have a lot of favorite moments, cause i love the books =P... i know thomas was crazy at times but sweet at others.... and i love josh,,, OMG!!! did anybody see the actor who played josh on icarly, and the acctress who played taylor on true jackson VP,,,, the one day i watch TV i shaw them both on TV, haha it was awesome .... I LOVE ROSH!!!! AND PEANUT BUTTER!!!! oh and i remember the first page it is another favorite moment!!!! @$ @lways love ur writing kate <3<3<3 =D

Posted by Emily on January 23, 2010 at 04:21 PM EST #

@ Emily, thanks for not hating me! ;)

Posted by jillian (: on January 23, 2010 at 04:23 PM EST #

Jillian, I completly agree with you!

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 04:25 PM EST #

AHHHHH! I always walk with my head down! It can sometimes lead to awkward situations...

Posted by Justine on January 23, 2010 at 06:35 PM EST #

@Brina @Chrissy, it seems like its only us three against a sea of Thomas-lovers!

Posted by jillian (: on January 23, 2010 at 06:58 PM EST #

I hate Thomas, too, so you guys aren't alone. Who would seriously want to date a guy who was a dr*g dealer, a heavy drinker and a player? Of course, he didn't deserve what had happened to him, but let's use common sense. If he and Reed were still dating, in a year, he would have dumped her for another girl. He would have hurt her just like he had hurt Ariana and all those other girls he claimed he "loved." You can't change a zebra's stripes.

Posted by KR on January 23, 2010 at 07:14 PM EST #

@KR, i know right? thomas couldn't just change who he was when reed showed up and started dating him. i mean, maybe he could have, but i son't think he would've.

Posted by jillian (: on January 23, 2010 at 07:18 PM EST #

^^don't***

Posted by jillian (: on January 23, 2010 at 07:19 PM EST #

KR I completley agree with you. PRIVATE came out sooo long ago, I think the Thomas fans have only forgotten Thomas' true personality. I'm not very big on Upton either, but I'd rather have Reed be with Upton than with Thomas.

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 08:09 PM EST #

Right on, Brina. Maybe people are saying they love Thomas because they feel sorry about his...end, or Reed's hallucionations about him when she was abandoned on the island. Even though Upton is a (MAJOR) player, at least he is more decent towards Reed.

Posted by KR on January 23, 2010 at 08:34 PM EST #

Yes, I did type a lot. I always have a lot to say when it comes to my fave series :))) And i just figured out today that if your comment is more than100 words it doesnt post, which means a lot of my previous posts were never posted :P

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 08:57 PM EST #

ugh my sister kicked me off of the computer 4 like 7 hrs :P n hahah BRINA--if ur scissors then i choose rock!!! WHOOOO!!!!!!!!! HES MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by kimella on January 23, 2010 at 08:59 PM EST #

ahaha Hunter, I actually didnt know that our comments cant be more than a 100 words long until you said it.

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 08:59 PM EST #

yeah, I also don't like Upton. I love Josh, and Sawyer is really nice I just don't see here as Reed's type. Maybe for Tiffany tho... I never thought Upton wa right for Reed tho. :P

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 08:59 PM EST #

i was so depressed cause that means almost all of my posts were never posted :P

Posted by Hunter on January 23, 2010 at 09:02 PM EST #

ahaha Kimella, too late. I already stole him from the book and we're going to move to Paris to eat crosaints by the eiffel tower all day long :)

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 09:04 PM EST #

for me thomas was a 2 on the boyfriend scale. Upton is like a 6 cuz atleast he is a good bf to reed. Josh was like a 8.5, cuz keep in mind he was not supportive of reed's billings life. and sawyer so far is like a 9. he would be a 10 but we still dont know if they are going to hook up. With Kate, you just never know what will happen.

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 09:14 PM EST #

ohemgeeee i lent my friend the 1st private novel in like september, n she still hasnt given it back!!!!! she says she hasnt picked it up in SO long....

Posted by kimella on January 23, 2010 at 09:19 PM EST #

hahaha!!!psh, brina honey, u must b talkin bout a different sawyer. cuz my boo, sawyer HATHAWAY, proposed 2 me last night!!! im all iced up now ;D ...

Posted by kimella on January 23, 2010 at 09:27 PM EST #

ahaha oh Kimella sweetheart, you must be dillusional. Maybe its time to go see a therapist. My Sawyer says me he may have to put a restraining order on someone and I'm guessing its you. ahaha ;) I'll bet me and you would be good friends in real life

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 09:40 PM EST #

The moment I read that part of the book I was officialy hooked on the Private Series and even though Thomas is gone :( I am still in love with him and I loved the way he was there for Reed in Suspicion.

Posted by Arianna on January 23, 2010 at 10:24 PM EST #

Hahaha all these comments in less than one day. xP btw, i love josh!!! Hope they'll get back together in scandal :D

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 10:38 PM EST #

hhahaah :P hate 2 break it 2 u, brina dear, but u must b deRANGED...cuz have u SEEN the 14-pg spread on elle magazine yet of our wedding, or has it not gotten thru that thick head of urs that im married 2 mr. hathatway??? restraining order?? he must have been talkin bout U...cuz u know my man....always so subtle, that sawyer ;D lolz we would :))) but in the meantime, we can chill online haha

Posted by kimella on January 23, 2010 at 10:50 PM EST #

haha pretty smooth talker there. I've got nothing. But if your 'hubby' suddenly comes home smelling like women perfume, you know where he went ;)

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 11:04 PM EST #

@kimella @brin. Haha chill, sawyer's only a book character. Go find someone who IS like him in real life. Hahaha

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 11:05 PM EST #

*brina. Btw, whose story was it that was about a girl finding his long-lost dad?

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 11:07 PM EST #

Sue ahaha a girl can dream. and thats julie hayes original story

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 11:18 PM EST #

@brina haha. How's your boyfriend like btw? xD oh right. Thanks. Please continue sending your story to me if you're continuing it, @julie. :)

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 11:22 PM EST #

I don't really like upton but yeah, I guess he's not almost as bad as thomas was. But the thing is, kate has the power and ability to make people fall in love with him (Thomas). I kina miss him (and probably love) but I def wouldn't want a boyfriend like him.

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 11:26 PM EST #

*kinda. Sry! Typing with my iPhone

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 11:28 PM EST #

omg, whoops, I meant finding HER long-lost dad...

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 11:34 PM EST #

huh, whos boyfriend? I have a crush, and we've decided to start over cuz hes one of those guys who likes girls cuz of there personality and i guess I was pretty annoying...long story! and oh gosh, is anyone else on here a Kesha fan? cuz shes my idol. "So cut to the chase kid cuz i know you dont care what my middle name is" love her.

Posted by Brina on January 23, 2010 at 11:44 PM EST #

@brina I meant your boyfriend. Lol. Oh I see... Good luck with that! @everyone based on your experiences, can you all please tell me what kinda girl guys like and what not? Also, do they mind a curious mind? Haha

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 11:58 PM EST #

@brina nope, I'm not a fan of kesha. Who else are you a fan of?

Posted by Sue on January 23, 2010 at 11:59 PM EST #

sooo many singers and bands. Im a music freak ^_^. I love Kesha, Red jump suit aparatus, 3oh3!, Mariana's Trench...I could name a million more.

Posted by Brina on January 24, 2010 at 12:32 AM EST #

KATE, I love all of ur books and cant wait for sacandal and sweet deceit! but i would really like to enter to win the scandal price pack but theres one problem... i live in canada and im sorry to complain but i dont think thats very fair to us canadians :( I hope u blog back to me... THANKS Meghan, the canadian girl

Posted by Meghan on January 24, 2010 at 12:43 AM EST #

Lol. I haven't heard or red jumpsuit apparatus and mariana's trench. Guess they're not that famous here in malaysia. What type of songs do they sing?

Posted by Sue on January 24, 2010 at 12:44 AM EST #

meghan, I'm canadian too ^_^ yay us. listen to them on youtube. I love their songs. my favorites are 'Beside you' by Mariana's Trench, and 'Your guardian angel' and 'Pen and paper' by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.

Posted by Brina on January 24, 2010 at 12:51 AM EST #

oh and Boyslikegirls. listen to their song called hero/heroine. I love it

Posted by Brina on January 24, 2010 at 01:02 AM EST #

@Brina omg you named two of my favorite songs! i love hero/heroine by boys like girls. in like sixth grade, everyonme here went through a phase of being obsessed with boys like girls, and apparently according to some people i know, they're "old" but i still like them. and My Gaurdian Angel by the red jumpsuit apparatus, two of my ex-bffs and i were having a kind of reunion sleepover just to catch up(im still havent remade friends with them) played me that song and said that it reminded me of them, and now i love it and cry when i think of that memory. :(

Posted by jillian (: on January 24, 2010 at 01:29 AM EST #

yeah I know what you mean, there's this song called Missing You that my best friend dedicated to me. I dont talk bout this much but he died last year. It's still pretty hard, but I listen to the song a lot and by the end I'm always bawling my eyes out. But atleast now I can actually get through the whole song. Anyways, I dont know what I would do without music.

Posted by Brina on January 24, 2010 at 01:46 AM EST #

Oh my gosh, im soo sorry, and i'm with you there. music has helped me through so much. i lost a whole group of friends when we hit junior high because they changed into completely different people than were my friends, and were peole who i didnt think earned my attention, and htey were the dame friends who helped me through loads of family issues i had at the time. i miss them. i dont know what i would do without music.

Posted by jillian (: on January 24, 2010 at 01:55 AM EST #

@Brina @jillian I feel for you both. I've also had friends like that before

Posted by Sue on January 24, 2010 at 03:36 AM EST #

meghan, I agree with you! i wanted to enter for the Scandal prize pack too :'( but it could be worse...We could have not been able to watch the webseries.

Posted by Hunter on January 24, 2010 at 12:56 PM EST #

Hey Ya'll! OH MY GOSH!!!! I can't believe that people like thomas!!HE'S DISCUSTING AND ANNOYING AND CANNOT EVER MAKE UP HIS MIND!!!!!!! I DONT LIKE HIM!Thanks kate for writing again!

I love the books I reread the series when I'm waiting for a new release. Can we get a sneak peak at scandal soon so we don't have to wait until march to read the book?

Posted by katie on January 24, 2010 at 01:36 PM EST #

WHOWHOWHOWHOWHOWHOWHOWHOO!!!! BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!! sorry you probably think I'm WEIRD!! but I'm NOT!! I promise hahahaha I want scandal!! -Alice K.

Posted by Alice K. on January 24, 2010 at 03:51 PM EST #

I'm ready for SCANDAL, but not Sweet Deceit. I'm afraid Kaitlynn might...you know with...you know. I'm so ready to figure out what happens to Reed. I'll gonna fall out of my chair if I get any of the two book chapters!

Posted by Tyra ann on January 24, 2010 at 04:30 PM EST #

well, I can't wait for the others books of private come to brasil,because here it has only the first book.. I'm like freaking out cuz I love the first book and I want to know what happen next to Reed..

Posted by Anna on January 24, 2010 at 05:00 PM EST #

Aww! Thomas, Thomas. I loved how we got to see him in Suspicion. It kind of shows how he is watching over Reed and he cares about her. But I really want Josh and Reed to get back together!! I would be the happiest person in the world if they got back together. Bye, bye, Ivy ;-P But, yeah, Thomas will always be important to me!!!

Posted by Nicole on January 24, 2010 at 05:29 PM EST #

I REALLY need some help here. I've never seen the Private web series and I'm in the U.S. but can't find it. Help? Where could I see episode 2???

Posted by Nikki on January 24, 2010 at 07:13 PM EST #

Nikki: it isn't on this website anymore. its coming to itunes soon though, so i guess we'll just have to buy it and watch it from there.

Posted by jillian (: on January 24, 2010 at 07:17 PM EST #

OMG! my internet was down for two days and i come back and there are like 100 more comments hahahaha

Posted by katie mac on January 24, 2010 at 07:30 PM EST #

Hey you guys, i havent been on in a while. Im with the thomas haters. he was never good for reed, and since he was only in the first book we didn't really get a chancee to fall in love with him like how we did with josh, who is perfect, i want to marry him :) my favorite reed and josh moment was when Josh comes back to school after being arrested and him and reed were alone in the chapel (its in confessions) they are so great together. and i like the scene where josh asked her to come to his fam reunion, but i hated how she totally forgot about him when it came to everything else

Posted by genelle on January 24, 2010 at 07:41 PM EST #

kate, i love you! Obivously, but you know what would make me love you 10 times more!??!?! If you make Reed and JOSH get back together!!!! I swear i want them back so bad i mean really josh was such a hypocrite for breaking up with reed when he did the same thing to her. please let him remember that and get back together with her.

Posted by kirstin on January 24, 2010 at 07:58 PM EST #

hey kate, this isnt about this blog but i have a question. my mom works at a company that does book covers and she has done your covers before. well tonight she came home with a copy of one of your books covers and in the inside it showed 3 new books. Scandal, Vanished, and Sweet Deciet. well i was wondering if you could give us a date on which your realeasing them. i know that scandal is coming out march 9 but could you give us a month in which we might be seeing them? well til laterr; KATiE <3

Posted by Katie. on January 24, 2010 at 08:16 PM EST #

Katie - YOUR MOM DID BOOK COVERS? Dude, that's soo cool! Haha. Oh, and for those who are DYING to have Rosh back onto the tracks, you might as well ask for Kate to add rainbows and unicorns into the story. That's WAY too much of a happy ending.

Posted by Allie on January 24, 2010 at 09:17 PM EST #

omg I loveeeeeeee Thomas!!!! He and Reed r perfect for eachother. i wish he could come back to life!

Posted by Kendall on January 24, 2010 at 09:23 PM EST #

@Katie, @everyone: Sweet Deciet comes out June 8, and Vanished comes out on August 31. I'm excited for all of them. :)

Posted by jillian (: on January 24, 2010 at 10:36 PM EST #

There's no cover for Vanished on Borders yet, but i can't figure out who's on the cover of sweet deciet: you guys tell me! but the link is really long so go on borders.com and type in sweet deciet!! i cant figure it out. helpp!

Posted by jillian (: on January 24, 2010 at 10:39 PM EST #

Allie, ahaha take my line much.(rainbows and unicorns) ;)

Posted by Brina on January 24, 2010 at 11:05 PM EST #

Oooh Kate, you know what would be really cool? If you put up a little count down thing to Scandal on the site. That way we could all keep checking and be like "woot woot, this many days left" ahaha.

Posted by Brina on January 25, 2010 at 12:45 AM EST #

@brina brilliant idea :)

Posted by Sue on January 25, 2010 at 02:52 AM EST #

i think kate should give us a couple of chapter to read like their is in the end of the books that give you a little about the next book!!!!!!

Posted by Celia on January 25, 2010 at 03:57 PM EST #

I know for a fact that I'm staying far, far away from this blog when Scandal comes rolling around, so I won't read spoilers like I did with Perfect Mistake. D: Anyone else have these same thoughts too?

Posted by KR on January 25, 2010 at 05:27 PM EST #

I just want to say I miss Thomas's character very much. Is there any way that we can bring him back? Or maybe even have his own series, something like ''Last Christmas'' perhaps? Please respond Kate Brian, would appreciate it!(:

Posted by Abby on January 25, 2010 at 05:29 PM EST #

Posted by jillian (: on January 25, 2010 at 08:53 PM EST #

And the countdown thing would definetly be a great idea. it would be soo suspencful lol and @KR i soo am stayong away from this blog until i finish scandel, suspicion was ruined for me because i saw a bunch of comments about upton and reed drowning b/c SOME PEOPLE FORGOT SPOILER ALERT!! lol i def dont want that to happen again. Ur amazing, kate, cant wait for scandal! : )

Posted by Kerri on January 25, 2010 at 08:54 PM EST #

Posted by Brina on January 25, 2010 at 09:10 PM EST #

Haha I like them but I hate them. First, I'm flipping out for spoilers, and then it's like "Sh*ttt. Bad idea." Hahaha.

Posted by Julie Hayes on January 25, 2010 at 09:20 PM EST #

ahaha,nice. I just need the spoilers cuz like waiting over half a year for something is a total killer for me

Posted by Brina on January 25, 2010 at 09:43 PM EST #

Hey Everyone! I just saw on Simonsays.com that I next private book after Scandal is Vanished and it will be released on August 30th. Sounds like Scandal will have a big cliff hanger at the end.

Posted by Amber on January 25, 2010 at 10:58 PM EST #

Amber, thats awesome. Thanks for telling us. And with a title like SCANDAL I wont be surprised at all if there is a cliffhanger. UGH I'm so excited, the wait is killing me.

Posted by Brina on January 25, 2010 at 11:03 PM EST #

@julie hayes hahaha the same thing applies to me. @simone I'm sorry to hear that too. Anyway, welcome back. :) @kerri that's why! It kinda ruined suspicion for me too. :/

Posted by Sue on January 26, 2010 at 03:38 AM EST #

Posted by justine anna wallace who is the #1 fan lol on January 26, 2010 at 04:33 PM EST #

hey guys!i can't wait until scanal-43 MORE DAYS!-i hope its longer than the ones in the past,since there was alot of time in between suspicion and scandal i think it will be.oh an kate i know there is a VERY slight chance that josh and reed will get back together,but can u atleast have them having alot of intimate scenes and atleast one last kiss,that would mkae me so happy.it would also be great if ivy and josh broke up because it makes me sooo mad having them together,but if u are having reed and josh back together then THAT IS GREAT!:)

Posted by genelle on January 26, 2010 at 04:35 PM EST #

43 more days. Does anyway have any idea when kate will show us the first chapter. How many days was there left till suspicion when she showed us its first chapter? it'll probably be around the same amount of days.

Posted by Brina on January 26, 2010 at 05:42 PM EST #

Shell probably post the chapter just abour a month in advance so around Feb 9th, thats only like 13 days away lol i hope thats when she posts it!!!

Posted by Kerri on January 26, 2010 at 06:01 PM EST #

I have no clue, probably in the next three of four blogs maybe.

Posted by Tyra ann on January 26, 2010 at 06:01 PM EST #

Posted by Brina on January 26, 2010 at 06:17 PM EST #

oh. Trust me, I am too. Maybe she'll post it on my Bday! (Feb 17) that'd be funny. But seriously. I hope she does post it soon.

Posted by Tyra ann on January 26, 2010 at 06:21 PM EST #

jillian (:-- omg thank you SOOO much. i was like going frantic thinking it was gone completely. i just recently finished paradise lost. i love this series more than twilight so i was sooooo mad when i cldnt find it. again; THANK YOU!!! :) oh and I like "Reed: 'Oh, you scared the cr*p out of me!' Noelle: 'I always hated that phrase. Just the thought of it...,' shivers. 'It's unsanitary.'" :) not the EXACT quote, but love it just the same.

Posted by Nikki on January 26, 2010 at 07:41 PM EST #

Nikki - Hahahahaha. Noelle is so funny. No wonder why she got most funny in Private ;) Bet Gage was the guy. "Dude, you need to adjust your meds." And basically all his perverted, sexual jokes. Hahaha gotta love him. Let's just say I wouldn't mind having him as a best friend...with benefits... ;)

hey kate, Just finished Megan's guide to the MC Boys and I totally loved it. I would marry the book ... except I've got a fiance. Anyways, how could you leaving me hanging there. What did that look Evan give her mean ? Please make a sequel! I need to know what happens. Or at least make an online novel like Midnight Sun. ;)

Jeez I'm checking this site for the thousandth time to see if there's any new commets but I seem to be the only one who's online. Anyway, can you all please tell me more about guys' minds, as in what actions will make them think that you have a crush on them and how to find out if they have a crush on you too?

AWWW I loved Thomas he and Reed were just perfect. But everythin happens for a reason so i think that somethin good did happen......she met Josh(altleast it was good until some .....things got in the waay) And I think when Thomas said that too her she really needed to hear it. She just started at a new school no friends and she has to look at all of these gorgous girls, shes kinda outta her element and she vunerable. I think when he said it to her it gave her some confidence some drive to kinda say ya i am, and i can do this. Reed would deffenitly not be the same girl we know and love if it had not been for Thomas Pearson.

I friggen MISS Thomas! He was such a sweetheart, and even though was a bad body and he acted like a dillhole to Reed that fateful night in the woods, he was sincere enough to apologize and let out his true feelings. <3

A favorite moment of mine is when in the novel Suspicion when Noelle says "I've been thinking about it, and Reed, I think you should move in with me." and when Reed asks if she's sure she says "Clearly someonehas to be looking out for you at all times. Who else is going to do it? Besides, if it wasn't for me convincing you to stay after the whole nearly-drowning episode, you wouldn't have ever been here to get kidnapped. I think that makes you my responsibility." by Noelle saying this we can tell that she truly cares for Reed and feels like she has to protect her. I feel like that would be the best type of friend a girl could have.

I loved the part where Sabine confessed and kinda cleared Reed's name of the whole Hook up with Dash scene! Besides that, I love ALL Josh + Reed moments as well as Thomas. I was so sad when you announced him dead! :'( You NEED to bring Josh and Reed back together!!! Upton is a total manwhore!!! And Ivy is NOT good for him!!! Love the books Kate! Keep 'um coming!!!<3<3<3
