Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 11:52 AM EDT #

Ugh I am so upset I cannot read the preview chapter. I have the newest version of adobe reader, but it still won't open it. Is there anyone that can help me? Or Kate, can you post it a different way?? I am a huge fan and love your books

Posted by Rachel on July 31, 2009 at 11:54 AM EDT #

I thought it said teaser chapterSSS? I hope its josh!!

Posted by jenna on July 31, 2009 at 12:24 PM EDT #

OhmyGosh! The first chapter is sooooo good! I can not WAIT until the book comes out!

Posted by Alex on July 31, 2009 at 12:29 PM EDT #

Who else has blond hair?

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 12:40 PM EDT #

OMG!! the first chapter is soooo good and i cannot wait for the whole book!! but i think (and hope) that the blonde boy is josh! but who else has blonde hair??....cant wait!!!!

Posted by katie on July 31, 2009 at 12:47 PM EDT #

OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. THE FIRST CHAPTER WAS AWESOMEEEEEEE. the blonde boy is definitely DASH!!! did upton have blonde hair? i forgott. kate thank you sooooo muchhhh!!!!!

Posted by Bonnie on July 31, 2009 at 12:49 PM EDT #

is there a book after scandal?????

Posted by Bonnie on July 31, 2009 at 12:56 PM EDT #

OMG i forgot all about dash your probably right it's probably him. But i still hoping it's josh

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 12:59 PM EDT #

wait it can't be dash because he was on the island boat. The boat left with all the island people. The blonde boy had to be josh b/c he has blonde hair and the person on the boat knew her name.

Posted by jenna on July 31, 2009 at 01:04 PM EDT #

Dash could have come back on a different boat looking for her!

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 01:06 PM EDT #

chapterSSSSSS? maybe she is posting another tomorrow. hoepfully :)

Posted by Allie on July 31, 2009 at 01:13 PM EDT #

i also think that it ws dash that helped her or it may be daniel ryan. maybe. because im sure that its taylor that tried to kill Reed. bc she would do anything for poppy and the person who had been in the back of the photoshoot also had blonde hair like her ;]

Posted by hi_its_me on July 31, 2009 at 01:26 PM EDT #

omg omg omg the preview was soooo good i cant wait till the book comes out!!!!!!!!

Posted by Sara on July 31, 2009 at 01:27 PM EDT #

Ugh! Noelle is still blonde :(

Posted by Bianca on July 31, 2009 at 01:35 PM EDT #

i dont no. i dont think that the blonde boy was dash, but i never thought of that. i think it sould be josh, but who knows? i hope its josh. i cant wait til the book comes out...i hope she shows more chapters!!!

Posted by Stephanie on July 31, 2009 at 01:37 PM EDT #

it does say chapterSSSS...

Posted by Stephanie on July 31, 2009 at 01:40 PM EDT #

That chapter was exciting! Thank you Kate! I can't wait for the book!!! You know when I finished reading Paradise Lost a couple of months ago, i formulated this story in my mind that reed will drown and in a coma for like a day or two. and while she is in that condition she'll dream of Thomas. They'll talk, make her realize something, blah, blah, blah... that sort of thing... but that's just me. what can i say i'm a "reed hearts thomas" fan.

Posted by audrey on July 31, 2009 at 01:40 PM EDT #

I DONT LIKE SANNA! I like Nicole!

Posted by Janine on July 31, 2009 at 01:50 PM EDT #

I don't like Sanna eithere! Not only is she ugly, but she's a horrible acctress!

Posted by Bianca on July 31, 2009 at 01:52 PM EDT #

Is Upton blond? I forget.

Posted by Bianca on July 31, 2009 at 01:57 PM EDT #

Go Team Nicole!!!

Posted by shelly on July 31, 2009 at 01:59 PM EDT #

Aww man! The chapter was reaaallly good. BUTTT for Private the series... I was kind hpoing Noelle would be A brunette. I pictured her as the girl on the front cover of untouchable... just with long curly/wavy hair... BUT BLONDE!

Posted by Katt on July 31, 2009 at 02:03 PM EDT #

This first chapter was awesome but I'm craving the rest of the book now! I think the blonde haired boy is Dash. I don't know why Josh would just show up on the island? but maybe for love who knows only kate does! i cannot wait to read the book!!

Posted by Shelby on July 31, 2009 at 02:13 PM EDT #

i hope Nicole wins!

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 02:14 PM EDT #

I know Nicole will win! She is just perfect for Kiran and the producers have to see that.

Posted by Elizabeth on July 31, 2009 at 02:18 PM EDT #

I just read the discription of Upton and he has light brown hair. So it was not him : ) I HOPE IT'S JOSH

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 02:21 PM EDT #

I think it is Sawyer that is coming to save Reed. I think it is because he is quiet and probably was not as into the party as the others. That is probably why he realized that Reed was missing!

Posted by Justine on July 31, 2009 at 02:22 PM EDT #

I agree with you! Nicole just has to win. It seems like a clear choice to me!

Posted by Frances on July 31, 2009 at 02:29 PM EDT #

the only possibilities are josh, dash or sawyer there the only ones with blond hair, I THINK.

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 02:30 PM EDT #

I agree with Justine. I immediately thought it was Sawyer when I read the chapter. It never even came to me that it might be Dash until I read the comments. I hope its Sawyer or Josh. :)

Posted by Allison on July 31, 2009 at 02:31 PM EDT #

sawyer had bronw hair didnt he though???

Posted by Bonnie on July 31, 2009 at 02:38 PM EDT #

i really hope that kate puts more chapters (because it did say teaser chapters on yesterdays post) but i don't think she will. she doesnt want to spoil more of it! i hope that it's josh or dash, though i think it's more likely for it to be dash because dash is already on the island. ugh i hate upton. manwhore. i HOPE that it's josh though because i love him and it'd be an amazing twist!

Posted by Jamie on July 31, 2009 at 02:39 PM EDT #

Another possibility is Gage...but I still stick to my original theory with Sawyer!!!! Thanks for posting the first chapter Kate<3

Posted by Justine on July 31, 2009 at 02:50 PM EDT #

OMGOMGOMG!!! I was SOOOOO excited and happy when Kate posted the chapter. When I read "Blond hair" I immediately thought it had to be Sawyer. I mean, believe it or not, I think the dude likes Reed. I think Taylor was the one who pushed Reed because she LOVES Poppy and probably saw her crying. Some people think that Upton found her or something, but he has brown hair. I'm totally on the Nicole Team and Sanna is ugly and I can't see her as Kiran. I'm a fan of Reed&Josh, but I LOVE Reed&Thomas. I don't think it's Josh or Dash because Dash is most likely with Noelle and how the hell would Josh end up on the island? Anyway, my biggest fear is the ocean, and if I were Reed, being in the middle of the ocean AT NIGHT, I would pass out and go in a coma. Especially if something was rubbing against my foot. I would litterally faint 'cuz I hate the ocean. Anywho, I'm a HUGE fan, Kate. Hope you post more chapters or at least the second one. Hope I'm not being pushy xD Love ya, Kate! ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 02:53 PM EDT #

thank you so much Kate Brian ...I hope its Josh who save Reed or Dash :-)

Posted by Hala on July 31, 2009 at 03:01 PM EDT #

39 more days till it comes out :( i don't think all make it!

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 03:02 PM EDT #

i"m thinkin its sawyer cause for 1 josh probley isnt on the island cause he hasnt contacted her in 4ever and i think upton is wit poppy although if it was josh that would b a huge twist lol i am agreeing wit the taylor therory cause that would b out of the blue and like they said taylor loves poppy noelle said it all the time in paradise lost :P well thanks 4 the 1st chapter kate LOVED it!!

Posted by Sara on July 31, 2009 at 03:08 PM EDT #

omg! Im mad at Kate for posting that because, of course, i had to read it and once i did i wanted more! i never read the previews at the end if books then i need that book. When does i come out, again? whenever it is, i cant wait to read it!!! I haven't read the last one for a while so i completely forget everyone but I'm going to read it this week. thanks!!

Posted by Emma on July 31, 2009 at 03:29 PM EDT #

OHMIGOD! I just read it! Kate you are a Goddess!! I love the PRIVATE series. I think the "blonde boy" is eiter Josh, Dash, or Sawyer. They are the only boys that i remembered with blonde hair. I'm most deffinatly rooting for Josh. Woop, woop!! How about you put up another chapter, huh? That would make me a happy person, and i'm sure many others!! But whatever you decide is fine!

loveee the sneak peak ! so excited for the book

Posted by Michelle on July 31, 2009 at 03:42 PM EDT #

SAWYER!!!! DASH!!!!! JOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by tyra on July 31, 2009 at 03:53 PM EDT #

i loved the first chapter, i think the blonde boy might be sawyer or dash. but i didn't understand the part with sabine, reed was just hallucinating,right? it said the person who pushed her off the boat took noelle's necklace or somethin and had a slim figure..hmm i don't know who would want a necklace, but there is a necklace on the cover of suspicion.

Posted by christine on July 31, 2009 at 03:54 PM EDT #

No, you don't get it. You're right about the hallucinations and Sabine, but the person didn't want the necklace Reed was wearing, they just did that to hurt her more before shoving her over the railings. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 04:16 PM EDT #

ahh!!! whens the book coming out!!! aww hopefully its josh i really do hope but then again it prob. isnt cause josh is probably taking care of ivy remember ughh ): but is upton blonde? i pretty sure he is but knowing his player self hes probably trying to make poppy not mad at him

Posted by natalie on July 31, 2009 at 04:20 PM EDT #

Just for the people who don't know, UPTON IS NOT BLONDE

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 04:23 PM EDT #

The first chapter was SO good! I can't wait for the rest of the story. My thought was that 'blonde guy' was either Dash, or maybe demented Daniel, who I thought was the one trying to kill Reed in Paradise Lost, and then is trying to cover his tracks by acting like he's helping her after these mysterious 'accidents'. Josh would be an interesting twist, but I'm not sure how that would make sense - he randomly shows up on the island, he wasn't on the yacht, he somehow hears Reed is missing and mounts his own sea rescue? And I'm pretty sure Upton was described as having brown hair, and I think Sawyer had dark hair too. Even more excited for Suspicion now! Thanks for the sneak peek. A little P.S. though - the sentence in the opening paragraph, 'I had been treading water in the dark of night..'? Isn't the saying 'dead of night'?

Posted by Ashley on July 31, 2009 at 04:35 PM EDT #

By the way, Kate, when are you gonna add the new characters to the "Easton Suspects" list thing? Like Poppy Simon, The Ryans (or something like that), Upton Giles (or The Giles), Sawyer and Graham Hathaway? Stuff like that. You know, update it. Like, when are you gonna update it? That's my main question xD

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 04:36 PM EDT #

That better have been Josh that saved Reed.

Posted by Katie on July 31, 2009 at 04:46 PM EDT #

theirs a easton suspect list?

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 04:46 PM EDT #

You should definitely post the second chapter..I can't wait til September. Thanks so much Kate

Posted by Katie on July 31, 2009 at 04:49 PM EDT #

Just for the people who don't know Sawyer is blond.

Posted by Lea Pough on July 31, 2009 at 04:56 PM EDT #

Yeah, there's an Easton Suspect list thing. If you click on "The Books" tab, and scroll down you'll see "Easton Suspects" and it puts every character in the books (main, or more involved characters) there and she writes discriptions of each one, and then their "scandel" (not sure if I typed that right)

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 05:08 PM EDT #

thanks janie

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 05:13 PM EDT #

Oops - checked Paradise Lost and Sawyer IS described as having 'shaggy, light blonde hair'. That would make sense if Sawyer is the rescuer, since Paradise Lost was kind of hinting at a potential connection between Reed and Sawyer. Remember she originally thought he was Upton when she scanned the guys at the party.

Posted by Ashley on July 31, 2009 at 05:14 PM EDT #

i think it is ether josh or sawyer. i mean it could be dash but i reallly really want it to be josh, and if not then sawyer. i totally see him and reed dating in the future, but i still am hoping for reed and josh to hit it off again.

Posted by Jess on July 31, 2009 at 05:33 PM EDT #

i think that its josh or sawyer and added on to Ashleys sawyer gave her that shell or whatever on christmass and she hid it from upton

Posted by kelly on July 31, 2009 at 05:37 PM EDT #

sawyer has blonde hair if you read paradise lost you see that reed thinks sawyer is upton and he has light blonde hair..

Posted by christine on July 31, 2009 at 05:48 PM EDT #

thank you kate so so so so much for the first chapter of suspicion! it was so good. thank you

Posted by Annie on July 31, 2009 at 05:48 PM EDT #

whoops i said the what the other girl explained

Posted by christine on July 31, 2009 at 05:50 PM EDT #

what does it mean if the website says ur comment contains blacklisted words

Posted by genelle on July 31, 2009 at 05:51 PM EDT #

uhh, im not sure are you putting bad words in it??????????? i have no idea..

Posted by christine on July 31, 2009 at 05:52 PM EDT #

i think taylor might of pushed reed off the boat or maybe amberly, that annoying freshman..im not sure, but amberly doesn't seem like the person to kill someone, but then again ariana didn't seem like a killer either.

Posted by christine on July 31, 2009 at 05:54 PM EDT #

no i didnt put bad words in it. its about the book

Posted by genelle on July 31, 2009 at 05:56 PM EDT #

i think josh was the blonde who was gona save reed. maybe he was on the boat all along and was gona surprise her (thats why he didnt call) and noticed she was gone. he couldve asked for one of those extra boat like on titanic.

Posted by genelle on July 31, 2009 at 05:58 PM EDT #

just wanted to know if anyone is curious of what kate brian looks like..cuz i kind of am

Posted by christine on July 31, 2009 at 06:00 PM EDT #

reed was in the water for over an hour, and the boat was on the way back so i think who ever it was came on a different boat that's why i think it could be Josh.

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 06:02 PM EDT #

theres pics of her on Google.

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 06:03 PM EDT #

oh my gosh that chapter was amazing! i wonder who the blond boy is...humm. and also i can not wait till next week, GO NICOLE!

Posted by camille on July 31, 2009 at 06:23 PM EDT #

Kate i don't mean to sound greedy but can you post the next chapter or just tell us who the boy was. I don't think i can wait till September 8, actually i know i can't wait!

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 06:29 PM EDT #

I just read the first chapter..Amazing!! The first thing i thought was that it was Dash. I think Noelle and them all noticed she was gone but Dash went in (cuz he's like stronger than the females or something.) It could be Sawyer, I just dont care for him though.I just want him to be friends with Reed. She HASTO end up with Josh!!!! I would love it to be josh!!!! But I couldn't even remember reading that he knew she was there. I hope you put another chapter in, ive just been waiting for this book for soo long!! NOW SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT. I live in Canada and I can't watch the Kiran battle thingie. I really wanna see or Id feel like crying. My biggest worry though, is that I wont be able to see the series. The thought alone just scares me to death. If anyone has help for me, here is my e-mail: yasmin_youtube@live.com Sooo excited for suspicion!!! xoxo Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on July 31, 2009 at 06:47 PM EDT #

Yasmin you can watch the casting calls on the pretty little liars website but now only the fourth one is on it, but when the other two are on, they end up on there a couple hours later. and i live and Canada to and i hope that it will be fixed before the series stars.

Posted by jess on July 31, 2009 at 06:53 PM EDT #

omg it is so TAYLOR who pushed her and JOSH who is going to save her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT HOW COULD U LEAVE US WITH ANOTHER CLIFFHANGER!!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRR!!!!

Posted by taylor on July 31, 2009 at 07:11 PM EDT #

josh does know that shes there she tells him at the beging and wants him to text her on how ivys doing since she wont be there but he never does

Posted by kelly on July 31, 2009 at 07:30 PM EDT #

Hey you guys!! KAte the first chapter was awesome!!!! I really hope its josh who saves her!! Or anyway besides Upton. I hope u will put of more chapters, because you did say u would. I Quote "P.S. Teaser chapters of SUSPICION coming really soon!" Unquote. So I Hope You won't will keep your word as put up more chapterS of ur new Private Book.

Posted by Ambika on July 31, 2009 at 07:50 PM EDT #

I thought it was Sawyer who pushed Reed!!! Don't ask me why I just think he is weird and very suspicious!!! But the person I think saves her is Josh too or Sawyer's brother I forget his name and if he has blond hair!!

Posted by Alice Cox on July 31, 2009 at 08:13 PM EDT #

sawyer's brother is graham

Posted by christine on July 31, 2009 at 09:21 PM EDT #

Sawyer's brother's name is Graham and I do think that he has blond hair, too. Sawyer might be wierd, but he IS kinda ... the strong, silent type. That's hawt xD

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 09:34 PM EDT #

I hope it is Josh!!! I love JOSH!!!

Posted by katy on July 31, 2009 at 09:37 PM EDT #

with sawyer's brother having blond hair it makes there four possibilities :( i hope it's josh.

Posted by jessica on July 31, 2009 at 09:57 PM EDT #

Sawyer's brother's name is Graham and I do think that he has blond hair, too. Sawyer might be wierd, but he IS kinda ... the strong, silent type. That's hawt xD

do you guys think that reed is the type of girl that wears makeup? i was just wondering

Posted by celine on July 31, 2009 at 10:27 PM EDT #

Does Upton have blond hair???

Posted by Kerri on July 31, 2009 at 10:28 PM EDT #

Ok... first of Josh saving Reed is the most random thing EVER! Why would he be on the island? And even if he was, he would have just gotten there and probably was not on the yatch so how would he know that Reed was missing? And second of all I am almost possitive Graham is NOT blonde. I think saywer is the one that saves her because, like I posted earlier, He is quiet and probably wasn't as in to the party as all the others and realized that Reed was missing. P.S. Saywer, Dash, and Gage are the only blonde main characters that are guys and that were on the yatch at the time.

Posted by Justine on July 31, 2009 at 10:34 PM EDT #

oh my gosh suspicion is going to be the best of all the books...!! but the blond hair... i guess most people go with josh or sawyer but its really been a while and so i dont quite remember sawyer haaha\ but i just cant waitt till suspicion comes out!! wooh!

Posted by jane on July 31, 2009 at 10:36 PM EDT #

I think Josh relized he still loved Reed and came to the island and he was the one on the beach during the photo shoot, and he probably went on the boat cuz he was gonna talk to reed but when he couldnt find her he got worried and went to find her! I soo hope thats wat happened! If it wasnt Josh then im gonna be dissapointed but i guess Sawer would be okay, as long as its not Upton. By the way i LOVEDDD the chapter and i dont think ill survive until sept. for the rest. PLEEZZZZZ post one more chapter or at least half the chapter. SOMETHING!! Private is the BEST and so r u, Kate!!

Posted by Kerri on July 31, 2009 at 10:43 PM EDT #

THANK GOD. reed is still alive. i knew she would be but it is still reassuring. i really hope it is josh. i seriously doubt it is dash. and i dont really want it to be sawyer because then i could just picture him going to eston because his dad might be the new headmaster and him and reed would date then of course josh would dump ivy and come back to reed but she would be dating sawyer! classic teen love/ star crossed lovers type thing. so i want it to be josh so they can get back together because i LOVE reading about them. basically im in love with this fictional character because youre such a good writer kate. thanks for the chapter! really hope its josh:) and im definetely team nicole!

Posted by Lauren on July 31, 2009 at 10:54 PM EDT #

gage has brown hair and that's true josh being on that island would be the randomest thing ever considering he was all the way in conneticuit but idk and you guys should be thankful she even put one chapter! not begging for more your just going to have to wait till september(: and I think it's sawyer too or dash possibly I doubt that though or maybe grahm? well can't wait I love you kate! go sanna!

Posted by taylor on July 31, 2009 at 11:07 PM EDT #

To the person that asked if reed wears makeup, I would guess she does. Maybe natural colors, but I bet she would.

Posted by Bianca on July 31, 2009 at 11:16 PM EDT #

Okay, I'm not quite sure if Gage is a brunette or a blond, but I doubt that he did it. As long as Upton's not the one who goes after her, I'm good. But it's deffinately NOT Upton, 'cuz, clearly, he wouldn't care and he has brown hair. I'm rooting for Sawyer to go for her 'cuz I wanna see how cute they could be. I mean, who knows? Maybe they will end up a cuter couple than Reed and Josh! Love ya, Kate! You're always keeping people on the edge of their seats, just waiting in suspense for what happens next. Wish I could be a good writer like you ;) <3 ~Janie~ PS: I'm a HUGE FAN

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 11:16 PM EDT #

to the makeup thing. i think that reed only wears makeup occasionally because it always says that she gets up and just puts her hair in a ponytail and gets dressed or something. and i just reread the first book and its like "ariana didnt wear any make like me."

Posted by macey on July 31, 2009 at 11:33 PM EDT #

Very true!

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 11:35 PM EDT #

Oh, woo! I'm the 100th person! XD

Posted by Janie on July 31, 2009 at 11:35 PM EDT #

okay look people. why the heck would josh ever be there in the first place? i mean, reed didn't even TELL him she was going to that island. Dash was probably too caught up with Noelle to notice anything. he's definitely a possiblility though, because saving Noelle's best friend can win some major points. I think it's Sawyer above all, because he's sweet and duh? he likes Reed. Remember when he was caught staring at her when she was contemplating his dad as headmaster? I just can't wait for Suspicion to come out. And definitely rooting for Nicole on the Kiran Hayes audition. I mean i think Sanna stands a good chance too, but it's really mean to bash on her. Thanks for the first chapter Kate!

Posted by Xinci on August 01, 2009 at 12:37 AM EDT #

it could be upton or noelle because the conversation on the boat "There! I see something! Right Over there shine the light" oviously theres more then one person on the boat so maybe reed just saw one of the helpers not the acually person like if it was noelle she wouldnt be caught rowing a boat or bouey im guessing noelle and dash or sawyer

Posted by Evelyn on August 01, 2009 at 12:58 AM EDT #

i think it's sawyer, but if it was josh, do u thinnk it's a connection to the fact that reed saw a blonde haired person at times in the book of Paradise lost? you know, when taylor and kiran thought reed was going all paranoid?

Posted by cammie on August 01, 2009 at 01:05 AM EDT #

I totally think its Sawyer. He has blonde hair, and, gosh! I just hope it is him. I don't like Josh or Upton.

Posted by Rebecca on August 01, 2009 at 01:08 AM EDT #

whats wrong with josh?

Posted by cammie on August 01, 2009 at 01:16 AM EDT #

Noelle IS A BRUNETTE EEEEEERRRRRRGGG

Posted by chloe g on August 01, 2009 at 01:20 AM EDT #

whats wrong with Josh? umm, everything! He is the bad guy, I don't want Reed to get back together with him. She doesn't deserve that JERK!!!

Posted by Rebecca on August 01, 2009 at 01:43 AM EDT #

Hey Ummm Kate? didn't you say you would post Chapter(s)ssss of Suspicion for us? I'm sad, we only got one. Please post another Sooooooooooon!!!

Posted by Rebecca on August 01, 2009 at 01:46 AM EDT #

How is he a jerk? He's wonderful for Reed. She was happy with him...for the most part.

its sawyer

Posted by Ashley on August 01, 2009 at 02:25 AM EDT #

My money is offically on Josh. I was looking over Paradise Lost for some clues in your writing Kate, and the begining at the hospital when Josh just sweaps Reed up in his arms, Reed says, or thinks, "I clung to him, gripping the smooth fabric of his oxford shirt like it was a life vest and I was about to go under."I don't know, maybe that has nothing to do with anything. But with the situation Reed is in..it kind of makes sense. I don't know..it stuck out to me.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 02:30 AM EDT #

I totally see your point, Katie. I want it to be Josh, but it just seems so far-fetched for it to be Josh. He was staying with Ivy. To support her. How could he know that something might happen to Reed? It would be a wonderful twist though. On the other hand if it isn't Josh then I would want it to be Sawyer. There were little hints with him too. The shell necklace. He obviously liked her...or was starting to really care for her. Sawyer is the quiet type...maybe he was keeping tabs on her the whole night. I want to see Josh and Reed get back together but maybe the good-bye at the beginning of Paradise Lost was a good-bye forever...and now it's Sawyer's turn to win Reed's heart? I still have my fingers crossed for it be Josh though! :)

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 02:44 AM EDT #

I don't think it's Josh at all...and honestly, I don't think he'd be cruel enough to leave Ivy when she's still in the hospital. I think it's Sawyer too, but it's possible that it could be Dash...for some reason, it seems like he keeps rescuing her, but I might be wrong...it's been a while since I've read the books. Anyway, we might all be wrong. After reading this first chapter, I'm so stoked, I can barely hold it in. OMG! I am so excited...anway, I'm totally for Nicole as Kiran too. She's perfect!

TEAM NICOLE all the way

Posted by Aimee on August 01, 2009 at 05:49 AM EDT #

Sanna looks like a horse. Absolutely ugly. I hope she doesn't win. Even if she had the best acting ever (and she doesn't) she's far too ugly for this.

I hope the webseries isn't as boring as the reality shows are so far.

Posted by Stephanie on August 01, 2009 at 06:01 AM EDT #

Hi, I live in England and we can't watch the episodes, so can you PLEASE make it possible :) Oh and I think Noelle probably noticed she was missing, 'cause you know Noelle knows everything and thye went looking and Dash being the hero he is, he just happened to be the one jumping in.

Posted by Lo on August 01, 2009 at 07:17 AM EDT #

yay, thanks for posting! I think it was Daniel Ryan who pushed Reed..by the orders of Poppy. I'm not sure who was diving into the water, pretty sure it's Upton :) If it is Upton, then I'll give him a second chance.I thought he was a jackass in Paradise Lost.

Posted by Rebecaaa on August 01, 2009 at 10:04 AM EDT #

thank you!thank you!thank you!please post more chapters.please.please.please. please.please. i think it's josh bc thats y he didnt call.he was going to surprise her and show up bc he cant live w/out her.i also think mrs.ryan pushed her off the boat.i have 6 peices of evidence to prove her a suspect.

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:19 AM EDT #

OOOH, WHAT'S YOUR EVIDENCE? :)

Posted by Allie on August 01, 2009 at 10:22 AM EDT #

i think ivy saw that he still loved reed after she woke up from the coma and told josh to go for her.and thats y he didnt call her.

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:23 AM EDT #

Omigod. That would be the cutest thing ebve. But you said Mrs. Ryan being the one to push Reed off? Why?

Posted by Allie on August 01, 2009 at 10:25 AM EDT #

my evidence is 1. mrs.ryan liked arianna so she did it for her. 2.she hated reed 3.the jet skis were her sons so she could have been the one to mess with it 4.the horse range was on her property so she could have spooked the horse 5. she was one of the 3 ppl who knew where reed was 6.her daughter was jelous of reed bc of upton so she could have done it for her

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:29 AM EDT #

i also think its josh bc 1. it couldnt have been anyone on the boat bc she saw it leave. 2. the guy was wearing a shirt and everyone on the boat was wearing a tux 3. the person had to of known her.

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:37 AM EDT #

oh. my. god. i need to know what happenss!

Posted by alllisonn on August 01, 2009 at 11:19 AM EDT #

This chapter didn't really tell us anything. We already knew she would be saved. Who's the blonde boy??

Posted by jenna on August 01, 2009 at 11:29 AM EDT #

would dash be the kind of a guy to take off his shirt and go in the water to save reed, i mean not any guy would take off his shirt, even though it is in the water.

Posted by christine on August 01, 2009 at 11:43 AM EDT #

Come on Kate! It said teaser chapterS as in more than one. So u can't just say chapters and only put one. That's unfairrr! Please Kate please!

Posted by Caroline on August 01, 2009 at 11:45 AM EDT #

i think it was josh, i think that he decided that he really loved reed and decided to come surprise her and when he got there the boat was coming in and he asked where reed was and know one knew so he decided to go out on a boat and look for her. (i know that would be really random but im still hoping that's what happened) I <3 JOSH

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 11:46 AM EDT #

OMG! Gage is blonde. And Graham isn't! And Upton isn't blonde either! And I highly doubt it is Josh. I am telling you it is Saywer. I don't think it is Dash because that would be to predictable. O and by the way just because some of you don't like Sanna for the part of Kiran, dosen't mean you should bash her on her looks.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 11:56 AM EDT #

Yesh! What if Mrs. Lange pushed her off the boat? Think about it. Mr. Lange gave HER, NOELLE, AND MRS.LANGE a purse. While Kiran and Taylor got spa cards. I think he has a tiny thing for Reed. Just like Amberly's (Annoying freshman!) Dad and Cheyenne. ? I love josh! If Reed won't take him back, I WILL! ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Posted by Tyra Ann on August 01, 2009 at 12:00 PM EDT #

It was Sawyer, Justine is right. I WISH it was Josh, but I have this STRONG feeling it was Sawyer. I pre-ordered SUSPICSION. I can't deal w/ Going to a bookstore and it's sold out!

Posted by Tyra Ann on August 01, 2009 at 12:02 PM EDT #

I thik Poppy pushed Reed off the boat. I hate Upton, I'm a total Reed & Josh fan. I hope Nicole wins. Okay now that I have that out heres an idea why Josh didn't contact Reed (it's kinda lame) Maybe Josh delted Reeds phone number when he was still very anrgy at her? I know its lame, but still it could happen right?

Posted by Diana on August 01, 2009 at 12:17 PM EDT #

mrs.lange could have been the one bc she tore off noelles necklace b4 pushing her off

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 12:18 PM EDT #

i think that we should all just ask ate to tell us who it is instead of keep guessing. she did say chapters so maybe shell post the next chapter anyways so she might tell us who it is

Posted by Rebecca on August 01, 2009 at 01:21 PM EDT #

i think sanna will get the part cuz all though u suppose to hate kiran u also like her and sanna looks the part cuz nicole just looks all scary cuz of her hard jaw line.

Posted by astrid on August 01, 2009 at 01:55 PM EDT #

AHH!! I sooo should not have read that cuz now i want more.. lol. I cannot wait for suspicion. Good job.

Posted by Hailey on August 01, 2009 at 02:04 PM EDT #

i just read the description of suspicion and now i definitely think poppy pushed reed of the boat or got someone to do it for her. KATE PLEASE POST THE NEXT CHAPTER.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 02:18 PM EDT #

Wait wheres the description??

Posted by Kerri on August 01, 2009 at 02:24 PM EDT #

If you google it you can find it. Atleast...thats what I did.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 02:26 PM EDT #

i still think its mrs.ryan. read paradise lost again but look out for mrs.ryan. there are 6 peices of evidence that lead to her as reeds killer

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 02:27 PM EDT #

Mckenna that makes sooo much sense, especially the shirt thing. I hope ur right!!

Posted by Kerri on August 01, 2009 at 02:28 PM EDT #

WHAT SHIRT THING?

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 02:31 PM EDT #

OMG!! that was sooo good. I thnk that the blonde haired boy was sawyer because how would josh just show up on the island out of no where. Could we maybe get one more chapter cuz I wanna noe what happens sooo bad. You left us with another cliffhanger!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE post a little more. I bet you guys that it was sawyer

Posted by lovedove on August 01, 2009 at 02:34 PM EDT #

Kate i was wondering how long the episodes are going to be and if the people out side the US are going to be able to watch it.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 02:41 PM EDT #

Ok... it doesn't even matter if they were on the boat. They would still have been able to save Reed. She saw it leave because it was going back to the dock. And it does say about an hour passed so it probably didn't take to long for the boat to get back to the dock. There was enough time.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 03:52 PM EDT #

I think it is Sawyer who pushed her off the boat 1. because Ariana acted the exact same way he is acting in the book and look what happened!!This is just my opinion!!

Posted by Alice Cox on August 01, 2009 at 03:52 PM EDT #

O and Mckenna, technically all the guys were wearing shirts under their suit jackets. So it can still be someone from the boat!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 03:54 PM EDT #

I'm so excited! I hope Nicole wins! I like her so much! If Sanna got the part, I don't think I'll like Kiran. Off to read chapter one of suspicion! :)

Posted by alyssa on August 01, 2009 at 04:01 PM EDT #

but reed saw the boat leave and you have to take off your jacket b4 your shirt.

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:03 PM EDT #

and if it were an hour she prob would have died

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:05 PM EDT #

Um if you look on the cover of Beautiful Disaster and Suspicion the girls are wearing the same bracelet, but I don't think it is the same necklace.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 04:06 PM EDT #

First of all it said "hours passed", and second of all he probably took of his jacket before he went looking.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 04:08 PM EDT #

yes it is

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 04:09 PM EDT #

i want it to be josh! but i know it isent i think its Sawyer even though i dont care about him. please post another chapter!

Posted by Sheila on August 01, 2009 at 04:12 PM EDT #

no it is not the same necklace. Look closer. The necklace on the Suspicion cover is shaped like a tear drop. The one on Beautiful disaster is more round and has like a back to it.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 04:16 PM EDT #

ohh my god! the cover of Scandal (the book after Suspicion) has released! it looks great

Posted by hi_its_me on August 01, 2009 at 04:19 PM EDT #

she said it FELT like hours past and as i said b4 she prob would have died if hours past

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:26 PM EDT #

ya but reed said she could tread water for hours. and it's not like there somewhere with cold water.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 04:30 PM EDT #

I bet a lot of people could tread water for a long time without drowning. I can see someone dying from hours of treading water in a freezing body of water... but I can't imagine the water was THAT cold!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 04:39 PM EDT #

but wouldnt she have seen a somebody coming back from the boat

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:39 PM EDT #

ya so i think it was a smaller boat

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 04:41 PM EDT #

O and it never said it felt like hours passed. She said quote "Minutes passed. Hours." -un quote. Just saying.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 04:42 PM EDT #

what i dont get is y the guy even took his shirt off. it would be much faster if he dove right in

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:44 PM EDT #

is it to show off his 6-pack. bc if so nows not really the time to do it

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:45 PM EDT #

lol

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 04:46 PM EDT #

actually she said she didnt know how long shes been in the water

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:49 PM EDT #

anyway i still just hope its josh. fingers cross

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:51 PM EDT #

even if it's not josh, when reed goes back to easton i think that josh and reed will get back together.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 04:54 PM EDT #

i know.they were ment to be together

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 04:58 PM EDT #

kate,if youre not gonna put more chapters up,can you atleast tell us.i dont wanna get my hopes up. atleast anymore than they alredy are:(

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 05:01 PM EDT #

if u see in any movies or shows they Always take thier shirts off to make it lighter and more freeing to swim in the water. Like reed took off her dress for the same reason. u become lighter.

Posted by jenna on August 01, 2009 at 05:11 PM EDT #

then y didnt he take off his pants

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 05:14 PM EDT #

It would be weird for him to take off his pants. Too revealing

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 05:17 PM EDT #

maybe hes embarrassed about whats underneath.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 05:17 PM EDT #

hmmm well i'm hoping that it was Josh who saved Reed, even though that is totally random!But it does make sense with the "mysterious blonde person" following her around, and that he hasnt' called or even texted her.. But it's weird that he would get past the police to watch Reed at the photoshoot. but i want it to be Josh. They have to get back together and STAY together! They're just perfect! In the book b4 Paradise Lost, Reed would always mention Josh as her love, or the love of her life!! They can't just end it like they did!!

Posted by Melanie on August 01, 2009 at 05:32 PM EDT #

I agree Melanie! They are perfect for each other. I wish it'll be Josh. Or at least I hope they will get back together when Reed returns to Easton. Go Josh!

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 05:39 PM EDT #

they well definitely get back together weather it's in the next book or in the last book. there meant to be.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 05:52 PM EDT #

CAN'T WAIT TILL SUSPICION. i'm sooooooo glad reed isn't dead. i think nicole is gonna be kiran. i'm fine with dat

Posted by boobah on August 01, 2009 at 06:11 PM EDT #

OMG! I can't wait for Suspicion! Please post another chapter Kate. Nicole is the best for Kiran. Go Nicole.

Posted by Deanna on August 01, 2009 at 06:29 PM EDT #

Lol. It was Sawyer, believe me. And I'm dying for Suspicion too. And you're right, the cover of Scandal looks good. But why are the models different? I thought that there are 4 models that go on each book for 4 books, rotating in positions, and then 4 new models. The same 4 models on Paradise Lost appear on Suspicion, but not Scandal. Weird! And Kate, please let the webisodes of the web show play in Canada.

Posted by Julie on August 01, 2009 at 06:31 PM EDT #

i think two of the models are the same or at least one the one on the right

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 06:37 PM EDT #

'Sanna looks like a horse. Absolutely ugly. I hope she doesn't win. Even if she had the best acting ever (and she doesn't) she's far too ugly for this.' Wow. I cannot believe I just read that. Aimee, that was possibly the meanest thing that I have ever read. Sanna is exotic, and she's beautiful in a different way. I've read about everyone saying how ugly she is, but I think you're all being shallow. Being Kiran has nothing to do with being a 'pretty girl.' Kiran is beautiful and exotic, like Sanna. Also, it's not your decision who plays Kiran. Just be grateful that there IS a web series and be excited for it.

Posted by Evan on August 01, 2009 at 06:51 PM EDT #

I agree with you. For all you know Sanna could have read everything you guys have said. How would that make you feel? Personally, I would be hurt if someone said that about me. It's mean.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 06:55 PM EDT #

0NE ; i totally feel like Nicole should win, sorry Sanna . I'm excited for the web seried though . TW0 ; Kate Brian =] the first chapter was brilliant (as always) but I believe it was either Sawyer or I'm hoping for Josh. But, my only concern is that I believe Kate's gonna switch it up and it will be a true twist to who it it

Posted by cantrell on August 01, 2009 at 06:59 PM EDT #

SUSPICION = SEPTEMBER EIGTH !!!

Posted by cantrell on August 01, 2009 at 07:03 PM EDT #

Okay, I just have to come out and say this. I canNOT believe a guy actually read this series. I never thought a guy would enjoy drama and stuff like what Kate's type of writing style is. Evan, you're a true dude. I feel exactly how you do about Sanna, that she's pretty in her own way and I agree with Allison, too. But, sorry to say, I'm on team Nicole 'cuz I just think that Sanna doesn't look the part. Okay, for all the people who think it's Josh who saves Reed, don't you realize that REED NEVER TOLD JOSH WHERE SHE WAS GONNA BE FOR BREAK????? Just saying. Think of that and then think of why you think it's Josh. If you have any explanations on why you think it's Josh, could I hear it? Thanks ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 07:08 PM EDT #

Well Noelle and them go there every Christmas right? Well, Dash is Josh's friend so maybe he told him that Reed was joining them this year. Or any of the girls could've told him. That's the best reason I have. Or maybe he heard a rumer that someone was going to try to kill Reed. lol I just love Josh and Reed so I'm crosing my fingers for them.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 07:13 PM EDT #

I really like Nicole, she's the best. And the start of the book was fantastic. It's going to be exciting when the book comes out.

Posted by Christine on August 01, 2009 at 07:19 PM EDT #

it was sawyer who helped reed. dash has brown hair ppl. and josh is in the hospitol with ivy!!!!

Posted by valerie-anne on August 01, 2009 at 07:27 PM EDT #

Yea, I know it's most likely Sawyer. But still if it is Josh then it would be an impressive twist.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 07:28 PM EDT #

Dash does NOT have brown hair!! He's blond!! And I see your point, Allison, but, remember, when Dash first got on the island, he was surprised to see her, especially with Noelle. But, I see your point. He could've told Josh after he found out. Very good explanation! Usually, it takes forever to make me see someone else's point of view. I'm very stubborn when it comes to points and views, lol xD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 07:30 PM EDT #

Oh, woo! I was 100th, 101th, and I'm also 200th XD XD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 07:31 PM EDT #

Thanks! lol I forgot that part about Dash. But your right Dash could've told him at any time.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 07:34 PM EDT #

Exactly. Some people don't think. But we're smarticlez XD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 07:47 PM EDT #

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH i WANT the blond guyto be josh.... but.... Kate always finds a way to surprise us so im not sure.......

Posted by Isabel on August 01, 2009 at 07:47 PM EDT #

i think it being josh would be a surprise.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 07:50 PM EDT #

I think Ariana contacted Mrs. Ryan to kill Reed for her sinse she knows that going to the island was practicly a tradition and she knew that Mrs. Ryan loves Ariana. Maybe Ariana told Mrs. Ryan incorrect things about Reed to make her hate her. Ariana knew it was about time for winter break, and she knew that Noelle was gonna head to the island and was most likely going to invite Reed, so it's a posibility that Mrs. Ryan pushed Reed. My top two suspects are Taylor and Mrs. Ryan ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 07:59 PM EDT #

It being Josh might NOT be a surprise, 'cuz most people are expecting it to BE Josh ~Janie~ PS: Think about it, Jess.

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:00 PM EDT #

1. mrs.ryan liked arianna so she did it for her. 2.she hated reed 3.the jet skis were her sons so she could have been the one to mess with it 4.the horse range was on her property so she could have spooked the horse 5. she was one of the 3 ppl who knew where reed was 6.her daughter was jelous of reed bc of upton so she could have done it for mrs ryan too

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 08:03 PM EDT #

OMG! Ariana has NOTHING to do with this! She is still in the Brenda T. at this time. She doesn't get out until the summer after Reed's senior year. And I might just have forgatten... but when does any of the books tell you that Mrs. Ryann loves Ariana?

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 08:03 PM EDT #

still think its mrs ryan

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 08:03 PM EDT #

in the prequel,last christmas, when she gets back from visiting daniels family

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 08:05 PM EDT #

What about Poppy? She could've done it as well. That's a very good theory about Mrs. Ryan, Janie. I didn't even think of that. And yea a lot of people are HOPING it's Josh. like me!

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 08:06 PM EDT #

its not taylor bc she doesnt have the gut to do it. but on the other hand kate likes to have the quite,innocent ones be the phsycos

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 08:07 PM EDT #

it couldnt have been poppy,upton was with her at the time.thats also y uptons not the guy who saves reed

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 08:08 PM EDT #

True, good point. but what if Upton ran after her but didn't find her because she was off killing Reed?

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 08:13 PM EDT #

Exactly! Thanks, by the way, Allison. When it comes to things I'm obsessed with, I'm very perspective and stuff. Also, have you guys noticed that everyone who's attempted to murder Reed LIVES IN BILLINGS??? ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:15 PM EDT #

Good point, Allison.

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:15 PM EDT #

wow I just wrote a ridiculously long comment and it said it was marked as spam. it took me about 10 minutes to write, cuz i was writing kinda slow and listening to music. not the point though. I had some reli good theories. Ill try it again later xxx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 08:17 PM EDT #

For all you guys that are saying it could be Mrs. Ryan Poppy, or whoever. You could be right. I said it's Taylor, becuase she lost weight made herself even more beautiful for Upton. When Reed came and won Upton's heart she was upset. So everything that she had done was for nothing. So I think it's Taylor who pushed her off. As for the guy that's going to save her, I think it could be sawyer or Dash, but there's something in me that is hopeing it's going to be Josh. I know some people are saying it's impossible, but nothing is impossible. So those are my predictions for suspicion. And Kate, I know you read these comments, so will you please keep your word and post more chapters of Suspicion. I know you won't let your fans down. Thanks Love your books!!!

Posted by Ambika on August 01, 2009 at 08:17 PM EDT #

And, Mckeena, I do think it's Taylor 'cuz it's always the most unexpected one who does it. And, as Noelle mentioned millions of times in Paradise Lost, Taylor LOVES and ADORES Poppy, so she could've seen her crying and talked to her before Upton could. And, Reed saw a BLOND boy jump in after her, and, just in case some people haven't noticed, Upton's NOT BLOND. He has light brown hair. ~Janie~

IT WAS A GUY THAT PUSHED REED OF THE BOAT!!! the last page it said she smelt something musky. isnt that a guy smell? xd so here are the guys we know of that were on the boat. dash, gage, west, sawyer, daniel, graham blablabla i think it was daniel. i think he did it for poppy, or paige or whtvr. they were saying repeatedly what a weird family they were. this isnt even half of the failed commetn that couldnt go on but ill do that later xd xxx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 08:20 PM EDT #

ugh! the book comes out rite on my birthday but i want it NOW! ty for the first chapter kate! amazing as usual! :) but i want it to b josh or sawyer hoo rescues reed! upton can go follow poppy around for all i care i HATED him in paradise lost!

Posted by Zoey on August 01, 2009 at 08:24 PM EDT #

Good point, Yasmin! I forgot about that musky smell, but maybe the person who pushed Reed off sprayed something musky to cover their sent (perfume or cologne). But, hey, you have a really good point. Nice remembering that!~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:25 PM EDT #

That's really lucky, Zoey. Maybe you'll get it for your birthday!! :D I bet Kate's gonna go insane reading over 200 comments! Lol!! ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:26 PM EDT #

They never told you in Last Christmas what happened after Ariana met his family, right? They ended it with her getting into a cab. Atleast thats how I remember it. But its been a while so I could be wrong. O and I am not saying it WASN'T Mrs. Ryann. (because she was one of my suspects from the moment Reed was pushed of the yatch). All I am saying is I doubt Ariana has anything to do with it. How would she even contact her? People who work at the Brenda T. would probably have heard her say "Kill Reed", or something like that.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 08:28 PM EDT #

ooh Janie ur right it could be a perfume,, i actually have no idea what musky smells like, i just noted that everytime shes smell thomas and stuff it would be musky xd a guys scent. i dont know musky doesnt sounds like a cologne smell xd xd xx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 08:29 PM EDT #

haha! well thats the price she has to pay for writing the best books EVER! o and just read the description for suspicion & tht totally just changed my hole opinion on hoo the killer was!

Posted by Zoey on August 01, 2009 at 08:34 PM EDT #

I see you're point, Justine, that's good. The thing is, I never read Last Christmas, so I don't know. I'm only reading the Private series, so I didn't read Last Christmas or any of the books from Privilage. So, I don't know. And, Yasmin, I didn't mean that what the person was wearing was cologne or perfume, but I'm saying that they sprayed something musky in the air so Reed doesn't smell the person's perfume/cologne. I just think that the person used that musky smell to cover them just in case they were wearing perfume/cologne. That's what I think. Not sure, though. But that's my theory. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:36 PM EDT #

Ok... just because Reed smelled something musky doesn't necessarily mean it was a guy how pushed her of the boat. If something smells musky it is an earthy kind of smell and is in perfumes. So it could have been anyone.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 08:37 PM EDT #

So who did you think pushed Reed over before you read the discription, Zoey? And now who do you think now that you've read the discription? 'Cuz I read the discription so I don't think that the person is a guy 'cuz it says that one of Upton's exes wants him back and will do anything to take Reed out of the picture. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:38 PM EDT #

maybe the person who pushed her off is the person who is saving her you never know they could have waited and then said they would go look for her so they wouldn't look suspicious and didn't expect to find her still alive. i know that's pretty far fetched but it could happen.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 08:39 PM EDT #

Part 1: i still dont think it was taylor. she doesnt have the guts to, but then again, times have changed. and on the description it says a girl wanted to get rid of her or something but hear this: In the previous books remember how Ivy said she wanted to take down Billings n stuff? And even I thought it was Ivy. So know I think that the only reason they were bringing up how Taylor loves poppy so that were gonna end up thinking it was her. like a twist you know. xxx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 08:39 PM EDT #

Nice pointing that out, Justine! ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:39 PM EDT #

Jess, I think Noelle would also think what you think. 'Cuz you know how Noelle thinks far ahead. Smart thinking, Yasmin ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:41 PM EDT #

I'm not sure how the time lapses with Paradise Lost, Privelge, and Beautiful Disaster..but it could have been Ariana who pushed her off..because technically she is BriannaLeigh now and no one knows who that is..so maybe she has been messing with Reed this whole time. Also Ariana has a weird obsession with Noelle and their previous friendship..so maybe its some creepy way of trying to be friends with her again. I don't know..that makes absolutely no sese and is sooooooooo very far fetched..but who knows. Watch us all be wrong hahaha. Fingures crossed for Josh or Sawyer..he seems like actually normal..compared to all the guys there and at Easton.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 08:41 PM EDT #

And if Ariana DID have something to do with Reed being pushed of the boat, don't you think she would have said something about it in Privilege or Beautiful Disater?

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 08:44 PM EDT #

Nice, Katie. I laughed when you said "Watch us all be wrong hahaha." But that would be really cool. 'Cuz then it would suck is most or some of us were right. 'Cuz then we would guess what happens next and then, if we're right, than it won't be as interesting. Also, nobody on the yaht OR the island was named Brianna Leigh, even though that's Ariana's new name ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:44 PM EDT #

Part 2: Isnt this frustrating? xD I have to read that book. Im goinna pre order it xd. Just a side convo while we are having this one. everyone that thinks Samantha Cope should be brunette please agree with me. They can still change it before its too late. Noelle was always described as a dark haired beauty kind of person and I will honest to god cry my heart out if shes gonna be blond. It just so typical when the it girl is blond (no offence to any blonde here). The last Kiran thingie is on Thursday, so by then they will have their Kiran and they will start filiming for August. We can still change it!!!

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 08:44 PM EDT #

Very true, Justine ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:45 PM EDT #

True, Yasmin! I hope that Samantha either dyes her hair brown or at least wears a VERY GOOD wig. 'Cuz I'm just gonna be shocked if Noelle turns out to be blond on the web series :/

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:47 PM EDT #

i think she she die her hair to but i think that reed should definitely have brown hair like she suppose to.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 08:47 PM EDT #

Yeah! Doesn't the person playing her have red hair?

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:48 PM EDT #

Yea. If we are ALL wrong I'm probably going to laugh my head off. lol

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 08:48 PM EDT #

i don't think we could all be wrong weave guest every possibility even the once that don't make that much seance.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 08:50 PM EDT #

im scared though cuz if you see those pictures, she is blond :S and no way its ariana that did it. i mean common she isnt going to risk her life again to push reed of that boat. and someone wouldve recognized her. it wasnt in any of the privelege books either xxx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 08:50 PM EDT #

I would laugh, too, Allison. And, you have a point, Jess. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:51 PM EDT #

Yasmin, Ariana didn't have to mention any of it in the Privielge books AND of course nobody's gonna recognize her 'cuz SHE CHANGED HER LOOK

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:52 PM EDT #

Janie, Yeah but the person that has been messing with Reed and trying to kill her this whole time could be Ariana..and killed her poor birdy:(

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 08:53 PM EDT #

How could it be Ariana?

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 08:54 PM EDT #

ya but Ariana said before that her and Noelle were really close she would recognize her.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 08:55 PM EDT #

yeah but they would recognize her voice. or atleast noelle would. and im pretty sure she would have thought it cuz I can remember she was saying something like this: the mess my sister made back at easton. she wouldve been like atleast i finished the job. and besides why would brianna leigh get an ivitation to that thing. she didnt know them.

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 08:55 PM EDT #

With regards to Ariana talking about it in Privelege..I just threw that idea out there as a very far fetched possibility..and I'm not really sure how the time lapses with the 3 books..so that makes it even more far fetched..haha:)

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 08:57 PM EDT #

Yeah! Poor birdy! D: Jess, you might be on to something, but I don't think it's possible that Noelle would recognize her 'cuz she changed her face, hair color, most likely her voice, and, a bit obvious, her voice.

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:58 PM EDT #

Lol, true, Katie. And Brianna Leigh didn't need to be invited by Noelle. She could've gone there on her own

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 08:59 PM EDT #

Just to clear this up for me...Ariana changed herself that much? Sorry I didn't read those other books.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:00 PM EDT #

she made her voice back to her southern accent right? noelle wouldve recognized it and once again WHY WOULD BRIANNA LEIGH BE INVITED TO THAT PARTY? she wasnt part of that inner circle xd just sayin xd xxx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 09:00 PM EDT #

Allison you really should read the other books there good

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:02 PM EDT #

OMG! I need more! :) Have you guys forgotten about Sawyer?!? Could it be himm??

Posted by Jenae on August 01, 2009 at 09:02 PM EDT #

that pushed him off you mean? xx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 09:03 PM EDT #

Brianna could've told Mrs. Ryan that she was really Ariana and Mrs. Ryan could've invited her. And when Noelle knew her, she made her southern accent very faint ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:04 PM EDT #

Your right, Jess. I should. cause I am completely lost. lol

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:04 PM EDT #

She could have just slipped on bpard the ship. Ariana is deranged and when it comes to Reed she is even more crazyyyy haha.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:05 PM EDT #

I don't think Sawyer could've pushed her off, 'cuz one: He likes Reed Two: one of Upton's exes wants Reed outa the picture ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:05 PM EDT #

Reed didn't slip, lol. Silly Katie xD

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:06 PM EDT #

Its a silly theory. Sorry guys haha.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:07 PM EDT #

Yea. and Sawyer is clearly not Upton's ex. I mean he gave Reed the shell necklace so he likes her.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:07 PM EDT #

reed could be dreaming all of this you never know. lol

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:07 PM EDT #

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ariana IS NOT out of the Brenda T. yet! Which means she is not Briannan Leigh right now.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 09:08 PM EDT #

Nooo I don't mean Reed..I'm saying Ariana could have just slipped on board the ship without an invite..I didn't mean literally "slip" sorry that wasn't very clear.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:09 PM EDT #

Btw, I hope that in the series, they don't make Thomas die, and if they do, I hope not as soon as in the books, 'cuz he died on the second book. Well, actually on the first book he died, but you guys get my point. I just hope that Reed and Thomas get a longer chance in the series, 'cuz with Reed and Thomas, those are the cutest couple out of everyone's she dated/kissed. In my opinion, at least

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:09 PM EDT #

Oh, Katie. NOW I get what you meant XD And please, Justine, relax 'cuz these are just theories being thrown around

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:10 PM EDT #

hey what happen to the guy that was on here. lol

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:11 PM EDT #

Didn't know she wasn't out..thats why I said I wasn't quite sure of how the time lapses with the 3 books..

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:11 PM EDT #

I think I'ma beg my mom to buy me Last Christmas and the Privelage series 'cuz I don't want the books to end!

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:12 PM EDT #

I have to beg my mom too. lol.. i think now is a good time

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:13 PM EDT #

Sorry for being thick-headed, Justine. Like I mentioned before, I didn't know that Ariana wasn't out of Brenda T. yet. I haven't read those books yet. Sorry :(

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:14 PM EDT #

I ve been on this site for a few hours now xd i jsut wana no wat everyone has to say so that it can make my wiser with suspicion xd haha xx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 09:15 PM EDT #

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:17 PM EDT #

We gotta reach 300 guys lol

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:18 PM EDT #

Janie what do you mean by: I hope that in the series, they don't make Thomas die... What series? Just wondering.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 09:18 PM EDT #

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:19 PM EDT #

Oh yea. 350. we can totally do that. haha

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:21 PM EDT #

The web series they're making with the actors. Allison, I totally agree with your "reach 300" plan! LOL XD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:21 PM EDT #

I kind of hope it's not Poppy. That would make it too predictable..you know what I mean.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:21 PM EDT #

400! :O

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:21 PM EDT #

What do you mean about Poppy, Katie? Lol, I almost put Poopy.

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:23 PM EDT #

Thanks for clearing that up Janie!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 09:23 PM EDT #

You mean who pushed Reed over?

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:23 PM EDT #

I dont like Poopy xd haha i ment poppy, it was a spelling mistake but now we have a nickname for her xx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 09:24 PM EDT #

No problem, Justine :) Didn't mean to confuse anyone

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:24 PM EDT #

i love the nickname it is fits her.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:25 PM EDT #

Yeah! PS: We're 4 more posts away from hitting 300!!

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:29 PM EDT #

five more comments till 300

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:29 PM EDT #

Haha nice. We already know that Poppy is jealous of Reed and Upton and she went to great lengths to get attention from him and other people through out the book..I don't know..I think it would be more interesting if it was like Taylor..or Ariana or anyone else. Does that help. PS sorry that I'm not using names..my computer isn's showing them. That should be Poppy's nickman..she is sooooo annoying.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:29 PM EDT #

Who's going to be #300!?

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 09:29 PM EDT #

We can do that!!! xx Yasmin

Go Yasmin!!

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:32 PM EDT #

you highlight under the comment to see the name

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:33 PM EDT #

Kate should make tests on her website to see who's the biggest fan! :O Not sure if that's a good idea though :/ ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:33 PM EDT #

Maybe if we get to 500 comments Kate will reward us with another chapter!:D

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 09:34 PM EDT #

If it were Ariana then Kate would have mentioned that she got out of Brenda T. and Noelle went to the fuberal after they found her "body".

Posted by Sydnie on August 01, 2009 at 09:34 PM EDT #

i love the tests idea janie. i would totally take them!

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:36 PM EDT #

Funeral sorry:P

Posted by Sydnie on August 01, 2009 at 09:36 PM EDT #

What? What body? What funeral??? I'm suddenly very confused. Btw, Justine, you have a good point! Maybe if we hit 500! Even though that would be A TON OF READING TO DO! XD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:36 PM EDT #

Thanks, Jess :) Let's hope Kate likes them, too! :o

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:37 PM EDT #

'Cuz Ariana kills Briana Leigh and puts her in a lake to make it look like she(Ariana) died but she didn't.

Posted by Sydnie on August 01, 2009 at 09:38 PM EDT #

Yeah, I know. But that's why Ariana is Briannaleigh now. I just used as an example with regards to not wanting Poppy being the one who pushed Reed off.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:38 PM EDT #

I bet she posts another chapter..but it doesn't say who saved Reed because she was unconcious or something hahahhahaa I would cry

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:40 PM EDT #

Okay, so, lemme see if I get it right. Ariana killed the REAL Brianna Leigh and put her in a lake. But made it look like Brianna was the one who killed Ariana, am I correct? So now she stole someone else's identity? Is that the point? That she stole that person's identity?

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:41 PM EDT #

that would be so mean :( lol

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:41 PM EDT #

Well yeah but everyones like Ariana did it but there would have had to be some mention of Ariana "dying".

Posted by Sydnie on August 01, 2009 at 09:41 PM EDT #

ya thats what happen

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:42 PM EDT #

I bet she posts another chapter..but it doesn't say who saved Reed because she was unconcious or something hahahhahaa I would cry

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:42 PM EDT #

Katie, I think that Reed will be concious on the second chapter(if Kate desides to post it) because then it wouldn't be much of a chapter if the main character is unconcious. Plus, the story is on Reed's point of view

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:42 PM EDT #

Yeah she did she's like a insanely crazy psycho person.

Posted by Sydnie on August 01, 2009 at 09:42 PM EDT #

Thanks for clearing it up for me, Sydnie :) Really appreciate it.

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:44 PM EDT #

Lol. Ariana was already known as an inanely crazy phycho person on the very point as we all witness her trying to kill Reed xD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:45 PM EDT #

im soo dying to find out who saves reed! I really hope its JOSH!

Posted by kirstin on August 01, 2009 at 09:46 PM EDT #

My very far fetched theory about Ariana has just gotten confusing..so scratch that..sorry ladies

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:47 PM EDT #

what are we talking about now im lost! :(

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:48 PM EDT #

Im with you Jess! Im Lost lol

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:49 PM EDT #

Yeah I was kidding about her being unconcious..We all getting our hopes up and I could see something like that happening..haha again I would cry if it did haha

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:49 PM EDT #

Janie, Ariana didn't want it to look like Brianna Leigh killed her. She just killed Brianna Leigh so the police would find a body in the lake and would stop searching for Ariana. Now Ariana is pretending to be Brianna Leigh so she can live a life like she did before. You should read the book so it can be explained better. If I tryed to clear everything up right now I would be typing all night. Sorry if I spioled anything for anyone! I just didn't want anyone confused. It is totally worth the read!!!!!!!!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 09:50 PM EDT #

Lol I'd laugh xD But, Kristin, I doubt that Josh will be the one to save her. Sorry, that's just my opinion >.<

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:51 PM EDT #

Yea. its like we're all screaming cause theres another chapter and then it ends up to be ANOTHER cliff hanger. I would laugh and cry at the same time.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:51 PM EDT #

Totally! And thanks, Justine :)

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:52 PM EDT #

hey were almost at 350, almost

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:54 PM EDT #

So because we aren't going to find out who really did it for a while..what is everyone's favorite book in the series?

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:55 PM EDT #

i like number 8 and number 5

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 09:56 PM EDT #

Number 8 for me

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 09:57 PM EDT #

My favorite book in the series has to be Inner Circle ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 09:58 PM EDT #

I'm pretty sure my favorite book in the series so far is the one were Josh and Reed first get together.(of course!) I think it was Confessions? Sorry if i'm wrong...its been a while.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 09:59 PM EDT #

Five and six for mee

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 09:59 PM EDT #

Is Inner Cirlce number 5? cause I liked that one as well. After number 8

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:00 PM EDT #

Inner Circle is so good.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:00 PM EDT #

Yeah, Inner Circle is number 5 in the series

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:01 PM EDT #

ya inner circle is 5

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:01 PM EDT #

Thanks Jess. Then Number 8 then number 5.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:01 PM EDT #

I also like when Josh and Reed hook up! I think that's book 3 (Untouchable) ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:02 PM EDT #

Oh, woo! I was number 350! :D

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:02 PM EDT #

no it's confessions

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:03 PM EDT #

What is everyone's favorite Josh and Reed moment?

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:03 PM EDT #

when josh takes to his room to paint

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:04 PM EDT #

When they were in that room where Josh paints and Reed painted with him. It was like right before they were officially dating.

her to his room i mean

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:05 PM EDT #

Their hook up was hawt, I must say xD I love how he is when he's hyper!! And my fave moment is when they go to the soccer field when Reed is beating him in soccer and they end up kissing on the floor xD

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:05 PM EDT #

Haha He's ADORABLE when he's hyper. Your so right Janie lol

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:06 PM EDT #

o ya that's my second favorite moment but i hate that it's interrupted.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:07 PM EDT #

And Jess, I'm pretty sure its in book 3 'cuz the back says that Reed has a hot hookup and that's when Reed and Josh get together. Actually, I change my mind. My favorite Reed and Josh moment is when Reed goes to his room and he's naked (but with a towel on) and she tells him that she loves him.

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:08 PM EDT #

Ah that was right before Josh hooked up with Cheyanne (sp?).

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:09 PM EDT #

Yeah, I do HATE that they were interrupted by the teachers >.> I totally agree with you, Allison! He IS ADORABLE when he's hyper :) <3

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:10 PM EDT #

ya your right Janie i was thinking that them getting together and reed proving josh innocent was in the same book. sorry.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:10 PM EDT #

Soccer feild and painting in his room definently! Can you see Edward Cullen doing cute things like that? I'd MUCH rather have a Josh than an Edward!:D P.S. no offense to those who read Twilight, but I refuse to read those books!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 10:11 PM EDT #

Josh sort of reminds me of a puppy. lol

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:11 PM EDT #

Lol. I like reading Twilight. Am not obsessed with it, though. And I don't take any offense. 'Cuz I totally agree with you, Justine. And I hate Cheyenne. She's such a s - l - u - t > < And it's okay, Jess. No need to apologize ;) ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:13 PM EDT #

Evey moment except when they're not together :)

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:13 PM EDT #

Lol, Allison xD

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:14 PM EDT #

Mmmhm yes the towel scene is good stuff. I don't remember which book it is..but it is after they all go to Legacy for the FIRST time and they are in the limo and Reed is tired and tried to get comfortable leaning on Josh and she ends up laying on his lap and he tucks her hair behind her head..he is so dang sweet. Or the hospital scene in the 10th..its so heartwrenching hahha.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:14 PM EDT #

Yea. I like Twilight too. But, like Janie, Im not obsessed. But I still think it's sad that Cheyenne was forced to kill herself...even though i hated her for hooking up with Josh.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:15 PM EDT #

Edward is noo Josh. Josh is like a puppy haha that made me laugh

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:15 PM EDT #

you shouldnt hate cheyanne she just has a crush on Josh it was Sabine's fault, she drugged Josh.

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:17 PM EDT #

I always thought Reed and Josh first got together in Confessions. Its been a while though so i will probably go through my books tomarrow and find out for sure!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 10:17 PM EDT #

Reed just can't win haha. But major props..she doesn't give up..that is why we all love her.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:17 PM EDT #

Yeah. They were adorable together D: And he IS so sweet! Katie, the towel scene and Cheyenne hooking up with him is all in the 5th book, Inner Circle ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:18 PM EDT #

Yea Edward is a gorgeous cold stone and josh is an adorable warm puppy. haha xD

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:18 PM EDT #

What do you mean by Reed can't win, Katie?

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:19 PM EDT #

ahh now i want a puppy :)

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:20 PM EDT #

Lol, Allison. The thing is, the writers of the movie Twilight totally ruined Edward and Bella. Completely. So now I just watch the movies 'cuz I've already read the Twilight books AND the Private series over 4 times xD That's how much I like to read. Just wanna keep my facts straight ^.^

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:21 PM EDT #

how did you get talking about Twilight?

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:21 PM EDT #

Janie, Yes ma'amm I know that. Did I say something that made it seem like I didn't? Sorry if I did.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:21 PM EDT #

haha omg I refuse to read twilight to and I'm proud of being one of the few hundreds of people to not read an overrated book series. Everyone is like obsessed with vampires now. And then its annoying because everyone is like if you're a fan of twilight you'll love this book. Everything just about is being compared to twilight even if its not about vampires and everything else related to twilight. Private series tops twilight anyday.

Posted by 123 on August 01, 2009 at 10:21 PM EDT #

I love puppies!! I want a Golden Retriever boy puppy! Like, get him WEEKS after he was born ;D ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:22 PM EDT #

I mean bad things after bad thing keep happening to her haha.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:22 PM EDT #

Oh. Yea Im just like you Janie. Im a total book freak...when im not with my friends. Ill stay all night reading when I really get into a book lol. and your right about the Twilight movie thing. The movie ruined Edward and Bella.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:23 PM EDT #

We can totally make it to 400 tonight!!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 10:23 PM EDT #

I feel so bad for josh in the end of untouchable when he was saying that he couldnt even feel anything when his best friend died. oh and the part where he gets arrested.

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:23 PM EDT #

i agree private tops twilight. i love twilight to but private is better.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:24 PM EDT #

Oh, my bad, Katie. I thought I read that you weren't sure which book the towel scene was in. Sorry, Katie. And I totally agree with you, Justine. Private trumps Twilight any day. PS: We're almost at 400!! :O

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:24 PM EDT #

Yea. Mckenna your right! I felt so sorry for him. Noelle and them totally set him up. And he seemed so desperate to get Reed to believe him.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:25 PM EDT #

hey what time is it where everyone lives i keep forgetting this is world wide

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:25 PM EDT #

Allison, you are, like, my soul sister! We are SO much alike xD Even though your name's prettier than mine :)~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:26 PM EDT #

I hope that private doesnt get too over the top like twilight

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:27 PM EDT #

OMG! Janie! I want a Golden Retriever puppy too! But I want a girl. My dad won't let us get one though...

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 10:27 PM EDT #

Jess, where I am it's 10:25pm I also feel bad for Josh 'cuz they were just trying to cover their @$$e$

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:27 PM EDT #

Janie, no worries:) I think its so sad when Reed is leaving and Josh runs after her and he tries to say I love you. Total bookworm too ladies:)

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:28 PM EDT #

i also feel bad for josh when he finds dash and reed together it broke my heart

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:28 PM EDT #

Justine, I want a boy 'cuz my mom doesn't want a girl 'cuz of periods and babies and stuff. Golden Retriever puppies ARE SO ADORABLE!!!!!!!!! iHaRtGoLdEnS<3

I hope it doesn't get that big too..I mean that would be good for Kate..but still:(

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:31 PM EDT #

i love the part where theyre at the party for thomas and josh gets all protective over reed when gage is about to touch her arm

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:32 PM EDT #

I'm such a softy..I cried so much in like every book in this series hahahaha.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:32 PM EDT #

Aww, I was SOOO sad when I read that she stopped him. And the look he had in his eyes. Especially that. Lol my mom calls me "her little bookworm" 'cuz I read books in less than 2 days xD I was so disapointed in Reed when she hooked up with Dash. I agree with you, Katie. Congrats, Jess, for being 400th! And thanks, Allison :) I just have a unique name. Never met anyone else with it xD That's what I like about my name. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:33 PM EDT #

same i cried to

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:33 PM EDT #

Janie... dogs can have surgeries to prevent that stuff from happening...just saying. P.S. I used to have a Golden...but she died:(... I WANT ANOTHER SOOOOOOOOOO BAD!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 10:35 PM EDT #

Lol, McKeena! I love that part, too! I think Gage was just flirting with her 'cuz he hasn't been in her pants, yet xD Katie, I think that the 400+ comments shows Kate how much of big fans we are and how much we love her. LOVE YA, KATE! <3 <3 <3 :) ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:35 PM EDT #

i also love the part where josh finds out reeds staying on campus for thanksgiving and dash says you would rather be alone for thanksgiving and then josh touches reeds hand and squeezes it and says yeah...Alone

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:35 PM EDT #

pshhhh what name is more unique than Katie!!..hahakidding. Confession..i dog-tag all the cute parts in the books haahahahaha weird huh.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:37 PM EDT #

That's right, Justine! I forgot about the surgeries! But I don't think my mom would like to have to pay for it xD My favorite character out of everyone in the series HAS TO BE Noelle. She's hilarious! She's always making me laugh ;P

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:37 PM EDT #

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:37 PM EDT #

Agree with you, McKeena! I liked that part, too! And LOL, Katie xD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:38 PM EDT #

Thanks, Jess :) But your name IS really pretty. Thing is, my dad wanted my name to start with a "J" and all. My mom gave a bunch of ideas and said Janie and he liked it. So, that's the story of my name xD

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:39 PM EDT #

My parents named me after these two songs. I figured that out a couple weeks ago lol

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:40 PM EDT #

I wish this was a chatroom 'cuz I hate having to scroll down all the time and I don't know if someone types something unless I refresh the page :/

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:40 PM EDT #

I used to hate my name because no one else had it... thats why I like it so much now!-Justine

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 10:41 PM EDT #

All the girls in Billings and just that go to Easton have such great names. Noelle is my Favorite too..then Reed.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:41 PM EDT #

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:41 PM EDT #

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:41 PM EDT #

AGREED Janie. Someone should make a Private chatroom. That would Be SOOO AWESOME

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:41 PM EDT #

Lol, Allison. I figured out a couple months ago that my name is in a song, which I was shocked to, 'cuz, like I said before, my name was different and I didn't know that people knew it even existed xD It's called Janie's Got A Gun by AC DC I think. That's how my P.E. teacher remembered my name, 'cuz of the song XD

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:42 PM EDT #

i wish this was a chat room to, i am getting tired of scrolling.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:43 PM EDT #

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:43 PM EDT #

Lol, thanks, Jess :) And Justine, I was exactly like you. I hated my name, but then I grew to like it ;) And a Private chatroom would be PERFECT!!! Agreed, McKeena! Walt&Constance4EvR!

JOsh!

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:47 PM EDT #

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:47 PM EDT #

Ooooh, McKeena! Nice question! I totally go for Sawyer OR Graham. I like the playful and strong/silent types. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:48 PM EDT #

definitely josh

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 10:48 PM EDT #

i hate my name, you cant get cups or anything with your name on it

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:48 PM EDT #

I wouldn't go for Upton. I hate the players who break your heart and totally trash it after :/

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:49 PM EDT #

Oh yea. Go Jess. Im going with Josh too

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:49 PM EDT #

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 10:49 PM EDT #

actually i dont know if i could choose

Posted by mckenna on August 01, 2009 at 10:49 PM EDT #

Yeah. My name isn't anywhere on any cups or keychains. The closest thing to my name is Jaime or Jamie. But if I can't find my name, I just look for Nicole(my middle name) and if I can't find that, then Nikki. If I can't find either, then screw it xD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 10:50 PM EDT #

Haha. My friends name is Kristi and you cant find her name on anything when it is spelled with an i. cause its always spelled with a y. and i found it in Colorado and on an impulse bought it for her to prove her name was on things

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 10:52 PM EDT #

Katie, just highlight under the comment you want to know who writes in it. ~Janie~ PS: I'll be helpfull and always put my little signature ;)

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 11:10 PM EDT #

Okay this might seem weird but I think Taylor bell pushed reed off the boat cause remeber she was jealous and has blond hair so I do. Kind of have a point . And my geusses for the boy who jumped in the water is sawyer Josh or upton but I don't think it's Josh

Posted by Emily on August 01, 2009 at 11:10 PM EDT #

Emily, good thinking. I think it's Taylor, too, and I also think it's Sawyer who saves Reed. But I don't think Josh or Upton saves her. Good perspective. BTW: I'M NUMBER 500!! WOO!! XD I'm not on any teams, Katie, but I like to play a little soccer. ~Janie~ PS: Jess and Katie, how does it feel to have an OLDER brother? I have an older HALF sister and a little brother > <

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 11:14 PM EDT #

Go us

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 11:14 PM EDT #

i would love to have an older sister

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 11:15 PM EDT #

I'm a middle child if you count my half-sis :/ But if you don't, then I'm the older sibling ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 11:15 PM EDT #

Im a fan of soccer and tennis. Im not on any teams either. but when school starts up again im going to try out for tennis. and it seems like 3 out of 5 people play soccer at my school lol.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 11:16 PM EDT #

I don't want an older sister. I hate her guts and she hates me, although she won't say it in my face >.> ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 11:17 PM EDT #

Thanks Janie... I spelled it like that once and my friend looked at my paper and made fun of me because she thought I spelled it wrong. I think most people spell it like this:elise... or something like that.

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 11:17 PM EDT #

Well I like it because my brother and I get along really well..idkk haha I like it a lot..but I haven't ever experienced having a little broter haha.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 11:17 PM EDT #

having my brother as a older brother isn't so bad because he buys me things but that's the only good thing.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 11:18 PM EDT #

The news just said that my town is having the hottest summer for my area ever recorded. joy.

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 11:18 PM EDT #

Nah. The way your middle name is spelled is REALLY PRETTY! Never seen the name spelled that way. I don't want to be on any teams 'cuz I hate being put on the spot and the focus of attention. I'm not GOOD at soccer, but I'm not BAD at it, either. I just like playing for fun.

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 11:19 PM EDT #

I'm really into volleyball(I'm 6'3)haha..I play lacrosse and I dance. Tennis is fun..I bet you make the team.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 11:19 PM EDT #

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 11:20 PM EDT #

Ha thanks Katie. Im 5'1. but still growing! so if my ball even goes over the net for volleyball i consider myself lucky

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 11:21 PM EDT #

Doubt it, Katie, if you're talking to me. I wanna try tenis. Sounds/looks fun xD ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 11:25 PM EDT #

We are having a pretty bad summer where I live so far. It is really rainy and it just started to warm up! And by the why I don't really play sports. I danced ballae and tap for like 4 years when I was young... then quit. then I cheered for 4 years a couple years later then stopped that. And then I took tennis lessons, but I never played on any teams. O and when I was little I tried soccer and it didn't really work out...lets just say I wasn't the best goalie!

Posted by Justine on August 01, 2009 at 11:26 PM EDT #

Omg, Allison, you're deffinately my soul sister!!!!!! Who knew I was gonna meet my soul sister through online chat?? Certainly NOT me!! XD

Lol, Justine! ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 11:28 PM EDT #

Anytime Allison. It is ahard sport to learn.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 11:28 PM EDT #

Arg. If tennis is hard to learn, then I don't wanna try learning it xD

Posted by Janie on August 01, 2009 at 11:29 PM EDT #

Janie, I was talking to Allison, sorryyyy. But you never know til you try. Tennis is a work out.

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 11:30 PM EDT #

i fell bad for Kate she has to read all this and most of it doesn't have to do with her.

Posted by jess on August 01, 2009 at 11:30 PM EDT #

Janie, Iwas talking about volleyball being hard to learn sorry

Posted by Katie on August 01, 2009 at 11:31 PM EDT #

Janie youve been on here like the whole day!! xD I had to get of cuz my mom wanted to go on and chek her mail. but im back! If I had to choose any guy Id want Josh I think, or maybe Dash, I really like Dash too, I think Gage is awsome too but he's a bit weird xd, I absolutely hate Upton i just like that he's british (like me!! well im half british, i have a british passport), i love british accents they are amazing. I also like Sawyer kind of xd haha this is lol xx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 11:41 PM EDT #

Hey I agree with you, Yasmin. on like your whole comment

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 11:49 PM EDT #

The first chapter was amazing! I hope the book is just as good :)

Posted by Gar on August 01, 2009 at 11:54 PM EDT #

Like remember in paradise lost when they are playing volley ball and reed is like: gage looks annoyingly damn hotxd haha I wanna know what hes gonna look like, and Dash for that matter!!! Woohoo!!! xx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 01, 2009 at 11:54 PM EDT #

haha yea me too. I dont why but i always liked Gage

Posted by Allison on August 01, 2009 at 11:56 PM EDT #

Posted by Yasmin on August 02, 2009 at 12:05 AM EDT #

Go to facebook and then the official page and go to discussions, there will be one about keeping noelle a brunnette and that Samantha should die her herand not keep it blond. Give your reply so that they can see how bad we want her to be brunette lets keep Noelle a brunette!!! VivA La Resistance of Blonde Noelle!!! We want a brunnette!!!

http://www.facebook.com/inbox/?ref=mb#/topic.php?uid=45284873386&topic=9255 there is the link for it if u cant find it :D xx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 02, 2009 at 12:41 AM EDT #

here are my theroies: i think sawyer is the one who saves reed bc that makes sense i think he likes her and stuff and im pretty sure daniel pushed reed and heres why: he saw poppy upset and then saw upton run after her and so his anger got the better of him again and he knew it was reed who made him love cry and he pushed reed and when he saw what he did he fled the scene and also sawyer is so quiet only he would notice that reed was missing. dash is a good guess but rememer, noelle just decided to give him a second chance, i dont think he would leave her side all night. message to kate: why kate, why do you have to be so amazing? when i read the last bit of the chapter i started screaming and woke up everyone. i am buying the book the day it comes out. no doubt about it : D

Posted by Andy S. on August 02, 2009 at 01:47 AM EDT #

ok guys think here. it cant be josh (at least i dont think it is:/) i want it to be but he's suppose to be in the states right now. and even if he came to the islands and got on the boat wouldnt he have been idk hanging out with the guys. his friends? and wouldnt have reed at least seen him? believe me u dont know how bad i want those two to be back together or for the blonde boy to be him but just think about it....

Posted by marisa on August 02, 2009 at 02:12 AM EDT #

Hi, Evan again....I'M A GIRL. But thanks for saying I'm a true dude, Janie? Hahahaha.

Hi, Evan again....I'M A GIRL. But thanks for saying I'm a true dude, Janie? Hahahaha.

Posted by Evan on August 02, 2009 at 04:00 AM EDT #

Omg i loved it!! I cant wait till it comes out it was soooo amazing im desperate to read the rest now I think it might be the Ryan boy or one of the other guys ryan's friend i think cause they werent mean to Reed i doubt its Josh but if it is then that will be a shocker!!! Great WorkKate Your an amazing author!!!

Posted by Midz on August 02, 2009 at 08:41 AM EDT #

OMG! The chapter is so good! I hope its Josh or Dash but mostly Josh!!!!!! BTW GO Nicole!!!

Posted by Kylie on August 02, 2009 at 10:32 AM EDT #

Oh. My. Goodness. I checked this blog just yesterday and there were only like, 70 comments. Now there's what, like 550? Hahahahaha. I don't ever think we've reached that far. You know how we're suspecting people like Taylor to be the one who's pushing Reed off? Well, have you ever thought maybe Kate is doing someboy obvious so that it'd be shocking? Like, if it was Taylor (example), we'd be like, "Oh, yeah, I knew that." But if it was, I don't know, Paige, we'd wouldn't be at all shocked either. Just the fact that Billings houses pshycos...As for the boy who jumped in, Josh could be quite random. Sawyer, Dash are blonde. Actually, I don't think the answer will shock me. We've listed like, ALL the characters in the book. This should be a chatroom instead. Haha. MORE THEORIES TO COME.

Posted by Allie on August 02, 2009 at 11:13 AM EDT #

Lol, sorry, Evan. Just thought that it was a guy's name and I was a bit shocked so I'm like, woah, a real guy actually reads this series. Sorry!! >.< Now I feel horrible D: ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 11:20 AM EDT #

Have you guys noticed that all the people who tried to murder Reed were in Billings House?

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 11:22 AM EDT #

Btw, Gage is hot as hell! He's hilarious and I love him! Even though he's a player (in a way) xD

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 11:23 AM EDT #

hey Janie, and it is weird that all the people have been in billings, maybe that still applies. -Jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 11:28 AM EDT #

someone always tries to hurt reed after or during a party.

Posted by Allie on August 02, 2009 at 11:32 AM EDT #

Kate's probably not going to put the next chapter (if she is going to put the next chapter) on here today since it's the weekend hopefully tomorrow. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 11:41 AM EDT #

if shes not,i hope shell atleast tell us so we dont get our hopes up. or atleast anymore than they already are

Posted by mckenna on August 02, 2009 at 11:44 AM EDT #

Hey Janie and Jess. I have a question. Gage has blonde hair right?-Justine

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 11:46 AM EDT #

i don't think it ever describes Gage, or at least in the first book. -Jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 11:52 AM EDT #

Thanks. I picture him with shaggy blonde hair though.

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 11:54 AM EDT #

Yeah, Justine. Gage has blond hair. And hi, guys. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 12:11 PM EDT #

Hey everyone! just read the first chapter. iloved it. thank you kate so much for posting it. i really don't think it is josh who saved her. it was probally dash. now for the reed and josh lovers out there don't kill me but, i think reed and josh should not get back together. i am hoping reed will move on and date someone else. i also hope she doesn't get back together with upton. can't wait till suspicion comes out. i hope kate writes like 10 more books. i am hoping that in the web series that they drag out thomas being alive as much as possible. i wish he didn't have to die.

Posted by Meghan on August 02, 2009 at 12:13 PM EDT #

So to the person who pushed reed... remember when the girls were having their photo shoot and reed thought she saw a blonde girl in one of her photos? It was almost as if someone was stalking her.. just like back at Easton. Like when she thought someone was in the woods and scared her horse. Totally out there and random guess but it could be,, Ariana?!

Posted by Lauren on August 02, 2009 at 12:27 PM EDT #

Hey guys. I dont think its Ariana, but i guess it could be

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 12:36 PM EDT #

My guess for who pushed Reed off the boat would be...... (a long shot from being right) is Mrs. Ryan because maybe Upton and her had a fling with eachother and she is jealous of Reed and pushed!! (I know it is a long shot from being right but this is my guess)

Posted by Alice Cox on August 02, 2009 at 12:37 PM EDT #

Your not the only one who thinks it could be Mrs. Ryan. I thought so too before I read the Suspicion description. It makes since for it to be her cause she obviously hates Reed.

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 12:39 PM EDT #

Nice guess! Hey, Allison!! :)

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 12:41 PM EDT #

i don't think it'd Ariana because they haven't mentioned Noelle Kiran and Taylor going to her funeral so that means she is ether still jail or with in Texas and i think it would have been mentioned in privilege.

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 12:42 PM EDT #

My two top suspects are Taylor and Mrs. Ryan and who I think saves Reed is Sawyer. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 12:43 PM EDT #

Hey Janie! :D Hi Jess

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 12:43 PM EDT #

I really hope Kate posts the second chapter. And if she won't, at LEAST say who saves Reed. I hate/love cliffhangers at the same time > <

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 12:45 PM EDT #

i think Paige or Mrs Ryan, and for the person saving reed i think sawyer but i really hope it's josh. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 12:45 PM EDT #

I agree with Janie on the suspects and the Sawyer thing. But I still think its possible for Poppy to be the one who pushes her off. but then again maybe thats what Kate wants us to think

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 12:45 PM EDT #

Well, I'm going to re-read the chapter for the 3rd time 'cuz I have nothing better to do xD

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 12:46 PM EDT #

i think im going to reed the last chapter of Paradise lost and see if theirs any hints. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 12:48 PM EDT #

Exactly, Allison. It could be Poppy if Upton never found her, and if it isn't Poppy, Kate was just trying to trick us. I think we ruined the surprises for us when the book comes out. Last night I begged my mom to buy me the book when it comes out and she said she'll think about it. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 12:48 PM EDT #

OMG!!! I can't believe how many comments we have on here. I think this might be a Private blog first. Hey everyone! -Justine

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 12:54 PM EDT #

The book comes out the day before I have to go back to school!

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 12:56 PM EDT #

Hey! my mom has realized how crazzzyyy I am about these books. I jut found them this summer lol. and every time I wold finish a book we would go get the next one. I dont know whether to pre order it or have my mom pick it up at the store that morning. haha

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 12:57 PM EDT #

Lucky you start school late. I start august 24th. and that suckssss

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 12:58 PM EDT #

when Upton said that he had to take care of something reed thought it was poppy(poopy) but he never actually said it, so he could have went after Mrs Ryan's. -Jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 12:59 PM EDT #

omg Jess I never thought about it that way. good thinking. but he squared his jaw or something when Reed asked if he was going after her. didnt he?

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:00 PM EDT #

ya he did but you never know! -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:03 PM EDT #

Ahhhh whose going to be 600!?

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:04 PM EDT #

True He probably did that just to make Reed know that he wasnt going to talk about it.

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:04 PM EDT #

#600!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:04 PM EDT #

JK, I was 601...

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:05 PM EDT #

lol. sorry. I didnt know we were that close.

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:06 PM EDT #

Omg!! He could've been lying!! I never thought of that!! ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:06 PM EDT #

Woo! Allison, you're number 600th! Omg, I wonder how Kate's gonna react to all of these comments! This is probably the most she's ever gotten before. At least on one post

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:08 PM EDT #

if Kate doesn't start a new blog soon i think it's going to go up to 1000. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:08 PM EDT #

Omg, LOL!!! Then I would deffinately HATE scrolling down :/ It's a pain

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:10 PM EDT #

We can totally do that! She probably won't blog again until tuesday.

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:10 PM EDT #

Haha whoop! 600. I bet we can make it to 1000 by the end of the day!

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:11 PM EDT #

Doubt it xD

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:13 PM EDT #

Hey maybe she will post the next chapter on my birthday!!!!!!

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:13 PM EDT #

All we need is 400 more and we got passed 500 yesterday. I think we can do it!

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:14 PM EDT #

i say lest go for it ! -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:16 PM EDT #

Yea Im with Jess. Itll be easssyyy

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:18 PM EDT #

Woo! But then Kate might not be able to post the other chapter if we're just gonna be typing the whole time.

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:19 PM EDT #

what does comment "authorization failed" mean? It came up after I sent in a comment, but the comment still went up on the page. Is that bad?

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:20 PM EDT #

no i think the site will shut down when she updating it. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:21 PM EDT #

haha. we might overload the system

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:22 PM EDT #

i think that happens when you answer the math question wrong.

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:22 PM EDT #

o maybe I miss counted! That makes sense. It still came up on the page though!:D

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:25 PM EDT #

LOL Allison! That would be funny. I hope that she IS updating it, though.

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:25 PM EDT #

I think the math questions thingy is kinda lame :/

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:26 PM EDT #

Yea. me too. the amount of scrolling involved in this is verrrryyyy annoying

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:27 PM EDT #

Agreed, Allison!!

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:28 PM EDT #

i think it was sawyer or dash, but i think it could be josh too, because he hasn't been contacting reed at all about ivy, so maybe he is secretly there. i totally think taylor pushed her because its always the nice girls. (ariana and sabine) Kate i think you are one of the nicest authors i have ever heard of. Thank you so much for posting the chapter. iu don't want to be pushy , but please try to post a little more so we know who the blond guy is since we have posted so many comments thinking about who he is so now i would really like him to be revealed. PLEASE KATE!!!!! thank you again!

Posted by sabrina illiano on August 02, 2009 at 01:29 PM EDT #

Haha!. I really dont get the point in the math problem. I mean...if we cant do math we cant post? lol.

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:30 PM EDT #

lol

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:31 PM EDT #

Kate by the way, you did say teaser chapters with an s indicating more than one. please make good on your promise. LOVE you.

Posted by sabrina illiano on August 02, 2009 at 01:32 PM EDT #

Sabrina, I totally agree with you.

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:32 PM EDT #

I don't think it is Taylor because eventually we will find out who pushed her. And don't you guys remember she was at Ariana's funeral with Kiran and Noelle? I don't think they would still be friends with her if she did that to Reed.

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:33 PM EDT #

The math thing is so stupid > <

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:34 PM EDT #

What funeral?????

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:35 PM EDT #

haha Agreed Janie!

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:36 PM EDT #

Lol, Allison xD

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:37 PM EDT #

the funeral in privilege o ya you didn't read them. you really should. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:38 PM EDT #

It was Ariana's funeral... but it was really Brianna Leigh that died. You HAVE TO READ PRIVILAGE!!!!!

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:40 PM EDT #

Lol. You guys need to explain it to me 'cuz whenever you mention Ariana dying and/or funeral, I get really confuzzled > <

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:40 PM EDT #

Me too. I get lost lol

Yeah, isn't it that Ariana killed Brianna and she pretended that it was Ariana? And did they even go to her funeral? You know, the billings girls, except for Reed or w.e?

Ok hey everyone. I'm officially hyper now.. I'm craving Suspicion... Ok so I think its Sawyer...and if things don't get sewn back up between Reed and Josh...I want Reed and Sawyer to start dating. Janie was it? Well, Janie, you're right. He's like the strong silent type and that is really hot. Plus they kind of had a connection. I don't remember Talyor really liking Poppy. Could someone remind me about it? And then everyone tell me who you think did it. I seriously feel like chatting about it...none of my friends really want to...crazy right? BTW EVERYONE!!! At the end of the chapter it says “There! I see something! Right over there! Shine the light!” which means there is more than one person. Who else do you think is there??? Please make more comments i really have to talk with someone about this. my name is Elle. Short for Chantelle.PLEASE REPLY!

I told you yesturday! She killed Brianna Leigh and put her body into the lake. Brianna looked like Ariana so the police thought is was Ariana. She did this so the police would stop looking for her. She is now living Brianna Leigh's life and pretending to be her. Ariana went to her own funeral in a way. But it wasn't really her that died. Noelle, Taylor, and Kiran came to the funeral together.

Oh, thanks, Justine. I can be thick-headed sometimes, hehehe.

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:47 PM EDT #

No problem!

Posted by Justine on August 02, 2009 at 01:48 PM EDT #

Noelle Kiran and Taylor?? hmm...maybe taylor didn't? cz i still think maybe she did it..u?

Posted by Elle on August 02, 2009 at 01:49 PM EDT #

Well, hey, Elle. I like your nickname. Yeah, my name is Janie. Thanks for agreeing with me about Sawyer ;P I totally hope that if Josh and Reed don't get back together, that then Sawyer isn't too shy to ask Reed out, 'cuz I wanna see how good Sawyer is in a relationship :)

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:50 PM EDT #

hey is josh the same year as reed or a year a head? -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:54 PM EDT #

Thx...:) well sometimes I even think that reed could help him like get over his sister... i think that even if they don't start dating he's going to go to Easton..and graham too. does anyone else hate Upton? like alot?

Posted by Elle on August 02, 2009 at 01:54 PM EDT #

I hope all these comments helps out Kate for future books. Question, why did they go to "Ariana's funeral" if they weren't her friends?

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 01:55 PM EDT #

because before she tied to kill reed they were really close. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 01:57 PM EDT #

I hate Upton!

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 01:57 PM EDT #

i don't think it was ms. ryan she was wearing some puffy green sleeve dress, and the person who pushed reed was average height and was wearing a black hoddie.

Posted by christine on August 02, 2009 at 01:58 PM EDT #

She couldve put it over her dress

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 02:00 PM EDT #

if i were kate brian i wouldn't stop writing the series until i died, that would be like a record for the most books in a series!

Posted by christine on August 02, 2009 at 02:01 PM EDT #

well, ms ryan was super mad..but you're right. i dont think she did it either. but i think that the person who did it was like doing it for someone else. let me explain. paige doing it for poppy? daniel doing it for ariana? did anyone know that daniel ryan used to date ariana? she cheated on him with thomas pearson but i think he was in love with her...

Posted by Elle on August 02, 2009 at 02:02 PM EDT #

ya but Danial lied to her about her being his first and all so i don't think her really loved her. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 02:06 PM EDT #

ok... i was rereading the books (i no its kind of lame, but what u gonna do) and im in the process of reading legacy again. when shes at cheyenne's memeorial service, reed thinks she sees cheyenne. cheyenne has a slim figure. cheyenne is blond. i no its kind of far fetched, but i thought of it when i read that part...

Posted by Stephanie on August 02, 2009 at 02:06 PM EDT #

yeah..good point. ok forget daniel. but im so confused. someone up above said something about taylor really liking ariana and doing anything for her. do you know what they mean by that??? -elle p.s. thx 4 sticking around jess. im so boredd right now.

Posted by Elle on August 02, 2009 at 02:08 PM EDT #

stephanie its not farfetched. it could totally be her. but...when would she show up? i also think it makes sense becasue she could be the blonde head from the window during the photo shoot...:)

Posted by Elle on August 02, 2009 at 02:10 PM EDT #

Elle, you make an awesome point. Btw, I hate Upton and I don't think Josh and Reed are the same age in the book. But, have you guys thought about this? Remember when the girls were really really drunk and had hoodies the next day? Think about that! That was in Paradise Lost. It is true that Ariana cheated on Daniel with Thomas. I still don't get why they went to her funeral if it was AFTER the time she tried to kill Reed. ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 02:12 PM EDT #

Stephanie, that's a REALLY good thing you saw! it might be a bit random, though ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 02:15 PM EDT #

Janie! I totally forgot about that hoodie thing! omg good thinking

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 02:15 PM EDT #

I think it was poppy still, just because I don't like her. I'm firm in my beliefs.

Posted by zoey on August 02, 2009 at 02:16 PM EDT #

Hoodies the next day??? Ok i cant remember that...im going to go check. i think josh might be older than reed because they never had the same classes and stuff...sawyer might be :) i still haven't read privilege but i think maybe it was becasue they were friends before..but you're right. confusing!

Posted by Elle on August 02, 2009 at 02:16 PM EDT #

I think Josh is a year ahead of her. I think...

Posted by Allison on August 02, 2009 at 02:18 PM EDT #

i know what you mean Zoey that's why i still think josh is the one saving her. -jess

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 02:18 PM EDT #

if josh is a year a head then he won't be back at school. :(

Posted by jess on August 02, 2009 at 02:19 PM EDT #

Zoey..i think that you're right...in a way. i think someone who really liked poppy might've done it for her. but there are so many possibilities. I wonder if its going to be another scandal that takes 8 books to figure out. urgh. that would be bad. i want to know now! btw the hoodies thing, janie, you're so right! that was quick i didn't remeber that at all!

Posted by Elle on August 02, 2009 at 02:19 PM EDT #

Thanks, Allison :) and yeah, the hoodies thing, 'cuz they were drunk after Christmas and they were horrible the day after. It was the time that Reed's cute little birdy died.

Posted by Janie on August 02, 2009 at 02:20 PM EDT #

how many book are there going to be? does anyone know?

Posted by zoey on August 02, 2009 at 02:22 PM EDT #

Oh righ
