OMG I cannot believe that Reed lied to Ivy about it all! This had better be good then! I guess Reed wants to do this solo! Can't wait until August to see what she does 2 help Noelle!!!

Posted by Jennie on July 27, 2010 at 10:38 PM EDT #

omigod thank you soooooo much for posting this~ much love from Ohio:)

Posted by Katie on July 27, 2010 at 10:56 PM EDT #

@jennie she can't tell anyone about Noelle disapearing remember the text Reed got at the end of Scandal? She doesn't want Noelle to end up dead.. so she's gotta keep her mouth shut therefore she's forced to ride solo

Posted by carly on July 27, 2010 at 11:00 PM EDT #

Posted by Jillian on July 28, 2010 at 01:09 AM EDT #

you guys can all chill, cause the next blog will most likely be on the release date of Vanished (8/31)

Posted by sarah on July 28, 2010 at 01:46 AM EDT #

Kate, let me say first that you're a hero of mine. I greatly admire your work, and I'm sort of sorry that the series is ending in February. At the same time, I know there's only so far a story can or should go. With 'Private,' I love the general story you created, the Reed/Ivy relationship, and the character development that Ivy has gone through. I truly hope to keep reading about their friendship right up until the series ends. With 'Privilege,' which I've just begun reading, I think you've done some great third-person work, and have created a very engaging story. I read the chapter called "The Truth" yesterday morning, and I was honestly moved and shaken by how unsettling it was. 'Beautiful Disaster' arrived in the mail yesterday as well, and I'm certainly looking forward to it. Overall, I'm glad I got to enjoy this collective saga you worked so diligently on.

Posted by Jim on July 28, 2010 at 04:17 AM EDT #

Is the next book after vanished "omnious" the last book? thats what wikipedia said.. I hope not :(

Posted by gabrielle on July 28, 2010 at 07:22 AM EDT #

OH MY GOSH!!! I can't wait till vanished comes out!! I love reading private novels i read them over and over again lol.

Posted by Kellie on July 28, 2010 at 09:37 AM EDT #

Can't wait for the book to come out :) But is Ominous really the last book? I had hoped it would end with her graduation :( But I guess there's only so much you can do with a series that long :P Oh, well. I guess it had to come to an end eventually :( It's probably the longest series of books I've ever read. And we'll still have privilege once this is over. But I really want to see reed find out about Kiran in Private.

Posted by Hunter on July 28, 2010 at 09:40 AM EDT #

I really think Ivy kidnapped Noelle. Ivy hated Noelle for what she did to her and how her grandmother died. Look at Sabine, she was Reeds 'friend' for a while before she came out saying she was Ariana sister and tried to kill Reed. Also in Private Kate makes you think of other people other than Reeds close friends to do the killings or now kidnapping. I believe that Reed with go after the girls who didn't make it into the BLS thinking that they kidnapped Noelle and forget the real bad guy IVY!!! Tell me what you think!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Rebecca on July 28, 2010 at 10:23 AM EDT #

Ahhhhh! thankyouthankyouthankyou! so excited. By the way, I'm convinced its Ivy too Rebecca, it makes perfect sense.

Posted by Rosie on July 28, 2010 at 12:30 PM EDT #

********************I'VE READ SOMETHING I SHOULDN'T AND NOW I KNOW WHAT THE BOOK OF SPELLS AND OMINOUS IS ALL ABOUT. THANKS A LOT FOR MY HOUR OF SNOOPING FOR THE DESCRIPTION OF VANISHED I JUST RUINED IT FOR MYSELF ABOUT THE NEXT TWO BOOKS IN THE SERIES. I HOPE NONE OF YOU WILL FIND THAT SITE BECAUSE IT WILL RUIN THE surprise THAT WILL SHOCK YOU ABOUT BILLINGS AND REED. BUT NOW I'LL JUST POST THE BOOK DESCRIPTION OF VANISHED.... After the initiation ceremony of Reed's newly created secret society, Noelle has disappeared and the only clue is a mysterious note. Is Reed's behaviour the cause or is there something more sinister happening? With the kidnapper warning of worse things to come if Reed tells anyone of Noelle's abduction, Reed realises it's up to her discover who has taken Noelle and to try and rescue her...before she becomes the next target.

Posted by Rebecca on July 28, 2010 at 12:58 PM EDT #

I don't think Noelle is in any real danger. I think she is a member of the real BLS and has agreed to be used as a sort of test for Reed to see if what lengths she will go to for her Billings sister, and if Reed passes she will be initiated into the society. Maybe Reed being sent the BLS book was like her being "tapped" for the society.

Posted by Amanda on July 28, 2010 at 12:59 PM EDT #

Wghat about Josh? He's already read the text, what do you guys thing happened with that? Like do you think Reed said it was just a joke or something??? And to Rebecca I know this is probably bad but could you give me the the link to the website where you got that information from??? I really wannna know!!! Please!just e-mail it to craig.sydnie@gmil.com

Posted by Sydnie on July 28, 2010 at 01:58 PM EDT #

What* sorry :P

Posted by Sydnie on July 28, 2010 at 01:58 PM EDT #

ivy would make perfect sense EXCEPT she doesn't pretend like shes noelles friend at all.. she makes it perfectly clear she doesn't like noelle at all especially at the end of scandal and the beginning of vanished and Rebecca omg is what you found really big?! about the next 2 books like fdhfjdksf idk like i wanna know but not really. i appreciate that you didn't post it on here though :D

Posted by katie on July 28, 2010 at 02:20 PM EDT #

AHHHHH!!!! I can't wait for this book!!! When exactly is this book coming to a bookstore near us?

Posted by Marisa on July 28, 2010 at 03:02 PM EDT #

@ Sydnie I can give you the web site address where I found the information for the next two books but promise me you won't post it on on this web site. I don't want to ***SPOIL**** it for everyone else.

Posted by Rebecca on July 28, 2010 at 03:31 PM EDT #

These books are kinda getting worse as they go on. i used to love them now theyre kinda boring. and what took so long to make another post?

Posted by Sydnie on July 28, 2010 at 03:57 PM EDT #

AHHHH i can't believe Noelle is gone like it just does not make any sense and i SO can't wait for the next book to come out. It's like i want to read the sneak peak of the whole book but i also don't wanna spoil any of whats coming next

@ Jennie I just sent it to you. If you want to talk about it let me know. And I don't mind sending it out, I just mind if its posted on this web site and it spoils it for everyone else who doesn't want to read it.

Posted by Rebecca on July 28, 2010 at 07:06 PM EDT #

Posted by Vanessa on July 28, 2010 at 09:01 PM EDT #

you guys like i wanna see it, but how big is it? like how big of a spoil?

Posted by audrey on July 28, 2010 at 09:16 PM EDT #

I agree. These books are getting worse as they go on so it is a good idea to wrap them up. But I do love them!

Posted by Kayla on July 28, 2010 at 09:17 PM EDT #

I agree Scandal has been my least favorite so far. so i'm kind of scared for Vanished.

Posted by kaeleigh on July 28, 2010 at 09:29 PM EDT #

i wish josh was in the first chapter!! i can not wait to see what goes on with him and reed!!!

Posted by cecelia on July 28, 2010 at 09:46 PM EDT #

Trust me the books will start getting even weirder after Vanished.

Posted by Rebecca on July 28, 2010 at 09:59 PM EDT #

Posted by Brina on July 28, 2010 at 10:29 PM EDT #

Posted by Rebecca on July 28, 2010 at 11:32 PM EDT #

OMG! I cannot wait for the book to come out!! I love the serise so much!!

Posted by Lisa on July 28, 2010 at 11:50 PM EDT #

Rebecca, I found the link... did you read the discription for the book of spells too? What did you think? I is REALLY unexpected!!!!!

Posted by Rebecca Hollis on July 28, 2010 at 11:54 PM EDT #

okay so Book of spells didn't really give anything away or that link... omg im scared to click vanished and ominous though sry if im making this a big deal haha

Posted by lindsay on July 28, 2010 at 11:57 PM EDT #

When does the Book of Spells come out? i just saw it on amazon but the date didnt show up so i dont know when it comes out! and does anyone know what its going to be about?

Posted by Maggie on July 29, 2010 at 12:41 AM EDT #

@Rebecca- i just read some of the older posts and i was wondering if you would send me that like please? people always spoil the books for me anyway and this way i wont have to wait:) my email is cheer4pink@gmail.com ~thanks

Posted by Maggie on July 29, 2010 at 12:48 AM EDT #

it really just gives descriptions not really spoilers.. and @maggie book of spells comes out december 21st

Posted by jenna on July 29, 2010 at 12:56 AM EDT #

okkk but id still love to read it!

Posted by Maggie on July 29, 2010 at 01:02 AM EDT #

I CAN NOT WAIT!!!!! I pre-ordered it... :)

Posted by Angel on July 29, 2010 at 01:25 AM EDT #

FINALLY. KATE I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!! I already have clues to Noelle disappearance. When Ariana killed Thomas and when Sabine killed Cheyenne, i didn't even think it was them. I don't think it's someone obvious, like Ivy and Paige. Someone we haven't really think its them. And knowing Reed, she's gonna figure it out.

Posted by Brittany on July 29, 2010 at 02:07 AM EDT #

@ Angel & Maggie I just sent you the email. Enjoy!!

Posted by Rebecca on July 29, 2010 at 02:56 AM EDT #

So the series might not be ending in February after all. 'Ominous' may just be the beginning of the last arc. If so, that's good to know.

Posted by Jim on July 29, 2010 at 03:56 AM EDT #

hey rebecca sorry but can you send me the link to my email it is gossipsc101@aim.com Thanks so much

Posted by Meghan on July 29, 2010 at 07:51 AM EDT #

I really want there to be a lot of Reed and josh in this. Since he knows about the text or whatever, maybe he can help her. Because, correct me if I'm wrong, it didn't say she couldn't talk to friends about it, did it? I don't remember :P Still, I think it's really important to see their relationship now that their back together :) Plus, I really just think they have awesome fun scenes when they're together :D

Posted by Hunter on July 29, 2010 at 09:46 AM EDT #

Gah!!!! That was SO amazing. I can't wait until it's released! I did fnd one error you should know about, at the end of the chapter it says "laying to Ivy..." But it should say "Lying to Ivy..."

Posted by Alicia on July 29, 2010 at 10:48 AM EDT #

@Alicia it said laying into Ivy which is just a phrase that means yelling or telling someone off lol anyways for the people that got the links with the spoilers, was it good??? i dont want the link and i definetly dont wanna know antythinggg that happens i just wanna know if wat happens is like mindblowing and awesome or if its weird and like stupid? no details pleez lol

Posted by Kerri on July 29, 2010 at 11:13 AM EDT #

Okay, you guys need to seriously stop doubting Kate Brian. She's an AMAZING author! Vanished is going to be awesome, just you wait. I wish you guys would be more positive and loyal to her.

Posted by Vanessa on July 29, 2010 at 12:57 PM EDT #

thats true. i thought it was going downhill after suspicion but then i read scandal and loved it. the end was one of her BEST cliffhangers and she put rosh back together! she knows what shes doing guys. im personally ecstatic for vanished to come out! :D

Posted by Hannah on July 29, 2010 at 12:59 PM EDT #

@kerri, i read the links and i thought they were kinda..weird. i didnt ever think of what could happend but even if i think its not a good idea i think kate will make it amazing!

Posted by cecelia on July 29, 2010 at 01:12 PM EDT #

Thank you Kate!!! I have missed your blogs and have been home all week because I had surgery and this just made me so happy!! I have been bored out of my mind and you just made my day, no, my week! lol awesome job once again kate. Can't wait to get the book! :)

Posted by CarolineL on July 29, 2010 at 01:31 PM EDT #

I honestly don't think that it is Ivy.. not a spoiler. I mean Ivy came with Reed to confront Sabine, and got shot. She and Reed are getting really close and she knows how much Noelle means to Reed, I just don't think it's her.

Posted by Angel on July 29, 2010 at 02:04 PM EDT #

@Kerri, it was ok. and @Vanessa I don't doubt Kate, and I know that she is an amazing author. I was just curious about the link.

Posted by Angel on July 29, 2010 at 02:07 PM EDT #

I know most girls are like okay you can stop with the books, Kate. But i really love them. So, please don't let book 13 be the last one. To be honest, the story line is kinda dragging, but i do believe in you to twist the story up. I know you got the capabilty to do such a thing. Hopefully, 13 is not the last one, because i know i'm going to be bored during school, because your book are really what i look forward during the school year. Please, don't end it.

Posted by Ambika on July 29, 2010 at 03:06 PM EDT #

If you want the link it waterstones.com and search for Kate Brian & Private and there you have it.

Posted by Rebecca on July 29, 2010 at 04:26 PM EDT #

book 13(Ominous) isn't the last book guys.. kate said there'll be at least one more after that.

Posted by jenna on July 29, 2010 at 04:47 PM EDT #

when did kate say that wasnt the last book?

Posted by cecelia on July 29, 2010 at 06:01 PM EDT #

@cecelia follow her on twitter and you'll know and its common sense considering she said there'll be at least 14 books in the series.. ominous is 13

Posted by jenna on July 29, 2010 at 06:29 PM EDT #

i havent been on here in so long so i dont really know what giong on.

Posted by cecelia on July 29, 2010 at 06:54 PM EDT #

FINALLY! YAY ive been waiting for sooo long (:

Posted by jane on July 29, 2010 at 08:10 PM EDT #

@cecelia its fine. i don't mind explaining.

Posted by jenna on July 29, 2010 at 08:27 PM EDT #

Anyone has hints on who can be Noelle's kidnapper?

Posted by Brittany on July 29, 2010 at 11:17 PM EDT #

I definitely think Ivy is behind this. She is on the top of my list!!

Posted by Rebecca on July 29, 2010 at 11:20 PM EDT #

What if whoever left the book to Reed is Noelle's kidnapper? Any thoughts?

Posted by Angel on July 30, 2010 at 01:23 AM EDT #

i don't mean to sound rude or anything, but what makes you guys think that Ivys the one who kidnapped Noelle when she was standing in the room? How can she go kidnap Noelle then come back really fast and make it look like she was there the whole time? That she hired people to do it? How is that logical i dont even know, but I don't think it's her and as for it being Ariana which I saw on a previous blog.. no comment. not even possible. As for who I might think it would be obviously the people who are against the people who gave reed the book, maybe the billings alum? If thats too obviously then maybe someone we haven't met in the series yet who is trying to teach Reed a lesson about starting a whole secret society thing considering what we end up finding what BLS is really about...

Posted by abrielle on July 30, 2010 at 01:34 AM EDT #

I agree with you abrielle. I don't think it's Ivy at all. That's too obvious. I don't think it's Paige either. She warned Reed and all, but we would all know it was her. I think it's the headmaster. Or Noelle herself.

Posted by Brittany on July 30, 2010 at 01:39 AM EDT #

Have you ever thought about Sawyer? He could have taken Noelle. He was still mad at her for hooking up this Josh. We really don't know anything about Sawyer's past do we now so we can't rule him out.

Posted by Rebecca on July 30, 2010 at 02:07 AM EDT #

@brittany i forgot to say that, Noelle could be behind it.. I mean its Noelle Friggin Lange.. why would someone kidnap her and get away with it? so it could be reeds punishment for not listening to her about the whole bls thing. Cause Noelle went along with everything Reed did and agreed with her and let reed talk down to her and stuff and that's not how noelle usually is so. you never know.

Posted by abrielle on July 30, 2010 at 02:17 AM EDT #

@Rebecca. I don't know, you're right that we don't know that much about Sawyer but he seems to sweet. And kidnapping Noelle because Reed didn't want to date him? That's kind of extreme, don't you think? But then again, with Private, you never really know, because Ariana killed Thomas for not loving her.... My guesses are Noelle, but that doesn't explain the banging. So it could be Noelle with the Billings people or Noelle with Ivy, but the latter still doesn't really explain the banging unless they had help so it could be Ivy, Noelle, and the Billings Alums

Posted by Hunter on July 30, 2010 at 09:49 AM EDT #

ummm, to whoever thinks its ariana... no. thats not possible. ariana was locked up in that institution for 2 years. its only been a year and a half maybe since she tried to kill reed, so she is still in that padded cell when noelle is kidnapped. i read on a different blog that maybe josh and ivy are working together. i thought that was a really good theory, but i really like josh so i hate to think it, you know?? but i mean who gets over their best friends cheating with their boyfriend so fast. so maybe ivy was keeping reed inside while josh was kidnapping noelle on the outside. tell me what you think...

Posted by Courtney on July 30, 2010 at 10:38 AM EDT #

ok i honestly doubt it was josh and ivy. first off josh was with reed when she first got that text so he couldnt of sent it i mean i guess ivy couldve. but in the first chapter of vanished she seemed like she didnt know what was going on with noelle and believed the thing about noelle just pranking them. and plus i really dont want it to be them cuz i like them!

Posted by jenna on July 30, 2010 at 11:04 AM EDT #

this is really random, but i read in a interview somewhere that at some point in time Kate's editor wanted her to kill of josh. YOU GUYS DO READ THIS RIGHT. KILL OF JOSH HOLLIS. what even. JOSH. OUR WHOLE POINT OF EXISTENCE. and our only reasons why we read the private books. well not really but you get my drift. But kate said she'd never do that >:) so we're safe. Idr where I saw the interview or what website it was but i'm sure if you google it you'll see it.

Posted by isabella on July 30, 2010 at 02:23 PM EDT #

Wow. so excited to read the whole thingg soon enough.

Posted by niki on July 30, 2010 at 02:40 PM EDT #

Kill Josh?!?! Noooo! Josh is like my dream guy. I get all fuzzy every time I read about him. Anyways, can't wait for the book to come out!

Posted by Brijean on July 30, 2010 at 03:59 PM EDT #

how do i read about the next two books? Whats the one after vanished even called?

Posted by Courtney on July 30, 2010 at 04:24 PM EDT #

@Courtney look it up and the next book after Vanished is called Ominous.

Posted by isabella on July 30, 2010 at 04:28 PM EDT #

ooooh, thank you :)

Posted by Courtney on July 30, 2010 at 04:29 PM EDT #

If Kate kill of Josh, i'm seriously not reading the books anymore. Lol. I never thought about Sawyer, he just seems nice. But then again Sabine and her "sweetness" to Reed. My top three people, Headmaster, Sawyer, or Noelle herself. And we may find out who gave Reed the book.

Posted by Brittany on July 30, 2010 at 05:00 PM EDT #

OMG I cannot believe it when I found out about Ominous, *********************************************************************************************************************** The web series makes a little more sense now. Thanks Rebecca for the heads up. Ireally hope it doesn't mean the end for the series

Posted by Rachel on July 30, 2010 at 05:02 PM EDT #

OHMYLORD YOU CHILDREN. if you would like the information. GO ON WATERSTONES.COM AND SEARCH OMINOUS, BOOK OF SPELLS, and VANISHED AND IT"LL GIVE YOU THE DESCRIPTIONS.HAVE FUN AND YOU"RE WELCOME.

Posted by stephanie on July 30, 2010 at 06:20 PM EDT #

Maybe i shouldn't have read those synopsis.....half of those books are ruined for me :(

Posted by Brittany on July 30, 2010 at 07:24 PM EDT #

I agree that it is too obvious for Ivy to be behind the kidnapping buttt i do think it is very weird that ivy got over the cheating so easily. I mean she was talking about bringing him on vaca w/ her family and was always all over him, how cud she be so blase bout losing her love to the best friend! even if what she said about knowing they werent right foreachother is true she still wud feel betrayd and outragd. i think shes defenetly up to something but nothing as extreme as kidnapping. And im gonna stop trying to guess the kidnapper cuz knowing kate, shes gunna hit us with something totally out of the box and unguessable lol thats why shes awesome : D soooo super excitd for Vanished!!!!

Posted by Kerri on July 30, 2010 at 07:32 PM EDT #

Okay, I read the synopisis of Vanished, Ominous, etc. on waterstones.com.....What a bunch of B.S. I don't know who wrote those summaries (if they are real of fake), but I can't believe a single word of any of it. PRIVATE is a typical school life, scandalized drama series. Not about freakin' witches. Don't believe me? Go to the site and read it. I honestly don't know if Kate Brian is going to go down that road, but I sure hope that she doesn't. Plus, why would a book site (a European booksite!) have detailed summaries of books that are released in the U.S.A. first?!

Posted by Aa on July 30, 2010 at 07:44 PM EDT #

they were descriptions... nothing is really ruined and as for @aa... Kate has already confirmed what you just said about the witches thing. That's what book of spells is about. witchcraft and what not so therefore it is real. She's not even finished with writing Ominous yet so maybe your right about that description being fake, but lets not be so quick to assume its not cause the european websites always get info before the us. not sure why, but its true

Posted by abigail on July 30, 2010 at 08:00 PM EDT #

Okay...I can get that the Book of Spells involves witches and whatnot, but having the Private series suddenly take a fantasy turn when there are only 3 books left? I don't think so. I would hate the series to end with "oh, all the Billings Girls are withces and can use magic and money to solve their problems tee hee!" That would completely ruin the books for me

Posted by Aa on July 30, 2010 at 09:31 PM EDT #

spoiler alert (maybe) okay well privilege is after all the private books so far and in sweet deceit Noella is in it so that means she doesn't die. - jess

Posted by jess on July 30, 2010 at 09:58 PM EDT #

yeah i know what you mean, but we haven't read the books yet so we can't necessarily say anything yet, but yeah I got really disappointed when I read that too, but decided not to think anything of it until I read Ominous. It would ruin things your right though and @jess yeah. we obviously no noelle won't die though its noelle ;)

Posted by abigail on July 30, 2010 at 10:01 PM EDT #

kate can u tell us what the book of spells is gonna be?

Posted by jess on July 30, 2010 at 10:11 PM EDT #

@Aa, yeah i read it too. I couldn't believe it. Witches? Come on.

Posted by Brittany on July 30, 2010 at 11:28 PM EDT #

CLIFFHANGER MUCH? something in my head makes me think that the old headmaster had something to do with this

Posted by Shaniqua on July 31, 2010 at 12:41 AM EDT #

Kate, I love you! <33333

Posted by Tyra Ann on July 31, 2010 at 12:41 AM EDT #

ugh. i'm going to regret this, but rebecca, could you please send it to me too? julie_hayes889@hotmail.com.

Posted by julie on July 31, 2010 at 09:58 AM EDT #

OH NEVER MIND. SORRRY.

Posted by julie on July 31, 2010 at 09:59 AM EDT #

@aa, kate has published books for Europe. so maybe thats why a eropean website has the descriptions of the books.

Posted by cecelia on July 31, 2010 at 10:24 AM EDT #

Really you guys. I give you a link to Waterstones to read the book descriptions for the next two books and all I asked you to do is please not to spread the spoilers all over this blog for people who don't want to know whats going to happen, and yet you still do. Please respect other people on here who don't want to read it. I'm kind of regretting sharing the link you you guys now.

Posted by Rebecca on July 31, 2010 at 12:30 PM EDT #

@rebecca sorry? I saw the link by myself you didn't give it to me. they need to have self control if they don't want it "spoiled" for them they don't have to read it. honestly, it doesn't really give away much cause anyway. plus, i thought i was helping you cause people kept repeatedly asking so i just gave it to them. my bad

Posted by stephanie on July 31, 2010 at 01:26 PM EDT #

to be honest i dont think its Ivy! like think about Kates past books in the series she makes it almost obvious that it is one person and it is someone whom you wouldn't even think of! does anyone know what the next book in the privelage series is called and when its comes out please and thank you! counting down to august 31st

Posted by Maggie on July 31, 2010 at 01:31 PM EDT #

@courtney ummmm u haven't read the privelaged series yet i assume? because what happens to arianna is explained in those books read em there good

Posted by Maggie on July 31, 2010 at 01:50 PM EDT #

@Rebecca , i promise i wont say anything .. could you email me the link i read some , and not all of the above and tried to go to it but i could only get to vanished and not anything big ... thanks :)

neva mind i found it ... quite intteresting ... but it doesnt explain the whole noelle missing thing. :S

Posted by ainslee on July 31, 2010 at 02:24 PM EDT #

@maggie. yeah, i have read the priviledge series. how else would i know she was in there for 2 years?? and the next priviledge book comes out october 5th and its called pure sin.

Posted by Courtney on July 31, 2010 at 03:59 PM EDT #

Hey guys I wonder if Kate even knows that that website is giving out descriptions of those books.

Posted by Angel on July 31, 2010 at 09:33 PM EDT #

don't read this if u don't know what the book of spells is about...... ..... did everyone forget about the missing 9 months...? i just re read the blog about it and this was said "During those nine months, Ivy Slade decided to come back to Easton. She said she took time to care for her dying grandmother and had always planned on coming back, but do you really believe that’s true? I’m not sure I do…" now me and my friend were talking and we were thinking that read or someone is gonna be related to her but maybe it ivy maybe ivy's a witch and we don't even know it. ,,,,, sorry if anyone read that is is now like "what the ...., but i put don't read it if u don't know so sorry

Posted by jess on July 31, 2010 at 10:07 PM EDT #

oh and remember the box that was at ivy's grandmothers that now read has right?maybe that has to do something idk im just thinking

Posted by jess on July 31, 2010 at 10:25 PM EDT #

i still want to know where noelle's scar came from. its absolutely killing me. how can kate make such a big deal about it when reed first notices noelle and then just totally drop it. ughhhh!

Posted by Courtney on July 31, 2010 at 10:41 PM EDT #

Hmmm.....sorry Rebecca, it was my fault. It sounds unrealistic though. And @jess, you have a good point!

Posted by Brittany on July 31, 2010 at 10:45 PM EDT #

shdkjhfkjsahf you guys are crazy, i'm sorry ivy being a witch? I don't mean to sound rude and I know you guys are just trying to come up with stuff but again, lets think realistically.

Posted by carly on July 31, 2010 at 11:40 PM EDT #

okay guys on kates facebook this is what she said about the private series : Ladies! Ominous (#13) is NOT the last PRIVATE. It's just . . . almost the last. :(

Posted by carly on July 31, 2010 at 11:49 PM EDT #

I love the Private series! can one of you give me some spoilers and/or descriptions of vanished and ominous and book of spells please? my email is klsdancerbabe2@aol.com. thanks!!!! oh and have any of you read the privlege series? if so what do you think about it? thanks again :)

Posted by Kyleigh on August 01, 2010 at 01:43 AM EDT #

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ ok to everyone who thinks Ivy is behind this: i think that is a very possible theory but don't u think that would be too predictable??? i really like the theory of Noelle being part of the real BLS and they r testing Reed.

oh and i know you weren't talking to me i'm just sick of seeing everyone ask when you can simply scroll up.

Posted by stella on August 01, 2010 at 05:45 PM EDT #

Thanks kate for posting the chapter, cant wait to read Vanished!!!!! And i just got my friend into the series and she is loving it! Cant wait for more:) THANKS!

Posted by Alison S on August 01, 2010 at 07:31 PM EDT #

Hah! I didn't even notice this post, because the first link that comes down when I type private is her old entry. That's how long its been. But I'm glad shes back. Maybe more than one entry every two months?

Posted by Stephanie on August 01, 2010 at 11:25 PM EDT #

@Carly, What is kate facebook url? Because i have her as Kieran Scott but not Kate Brian. When i do look it up it's like her fan page. Please send me her url at saxophone360@yahoo.com. Thanks!!

Posted by Ambika on August 01, 2010 at 11:59 PM EDT #

the book descriptions on waterstones.com. they aren't even the official descriptions. i looked for the previous books, suspicion, revelation, etc. and they're not even the description on the back of the frikken book. they describe the book, but it's not the exact words on the book. i'm sure the descriptions for vanished, ominous, and the book of spells were made up as well. and the publishing dates are wrong. it says bos was published 3/03/2011. yeah, the book comes out on dec. 21, 2010.

Posted by julie on August 02, 2010 at 12:11 AM EDT #

i find it weird. that the waterstones stuff is a foreign website, which means the books come out later BUT the descriptions are already out. makes me wonder.... i was actually kind of disappointed when I read it here i though i mean get a little teaser/spoiler of the future books, but it didn't even give anything away at all... we obviously know book of SPELLS is about witches i mean come on if you follow her twitter she said one time she's doing witchcraft in the book how would you do that if you weren't a witch? so yeah that's the end of my little rant.

Posted by Rachel on August 03, 2010 at 02:10 AM EDT #

Um no arguing on this site. We already had those freaks from the other post screwing up the blogs. I think some of you're guys theories are great! Noelle scar must have to connect to her disappearance.

Posted by Brittany on August 03, 2010 at 02:45 AM EDT #

how does the scar have to do with anything? the scar was there BEFORE noelle disappeared.. where do you guys even get this stuff lol like "ivy" is behind it.. someone said josh before sawyer its obviously someone who is against the bos and was trying to teach reed a lesson or maybe noelle is behind it cause no one would cross noelle lange

Posted by abigail on August 03, 2010 at 03:09 AM EDT #

To tell the truth, before I started reading the Private series, my sister did, and I have a thing about liking to read the backs of books so I read all the backs of the books that were out before I started reading them... :P Same with Vampire academy. My sister hates me for it :P But I really do like to read the backs of books and it doesn't give *that* much away :P

I'm getting sick of this...I loved the books but now its just boring. the same thing every time...she gets almost killed or someone else is almost killed and then she is saved or someone is saved and then the cycle starts again. I understand its fiction. but switch it up a little kate. seriously.

Posted by Andy on August 03, 2010 at 12:07 PM EDT #

NOELLE'S SCAR!!! <3 PLEASE EXPLAIN FINALLY.

Posted by Noelle on August 03, 2010 at 12:09 PM EDT #

okay ijust read the chapter when does the actual book come out? and is it the last one? I don't get where kate is going with this plot line i kind of agree with Andy its always the same thing! though i still luv these book <3 and kate plz tell us what the deal is with noelle's scar i dnt think its related to her being kidnapped but you made a big deal of it in the first book you had a post about it then never tld us =(

Posted by katie mac on August 03, 2010 at 01:25 PM EDT #

I am excited to read this book, but we already know that noelle is going to be fine because she was mentioned as being alive and seen in the priviledge books, which takes place a year later than private

Posted by Leslie on August 03, 2010 at 02:04 PM EDT #

THE LAST PRIVATE BOOK IS CALLED: OMINOUS

Posted by Sheils on August 03, 2010 at 03:10 PM EDT #

OMINOUS IS NOT THE LAST PRIVATE BOOK PEOPLE. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT BEFORE YOU SAY SOMETHING. kate said herself on her twitter that there will be at least one more book after OMINOUS.

Posted by stephanie on August 03, 2010 at 03:18 PM EDT #

I agree, I read the summary, I think its really weird how the books suddenly turned out to be about witches and now it sounds kind of stupid.

Posted by Mell on August 03, 2010 at 03:19 PM EDT #

Ivy is way to obvious i doubt it was her. As for Noelle's scar, i doubt it has anything to do with her being taken. The scar has something to do with her past, which may or may not come up later. Maybe it has something to do with her family and who she did reconize in the picture even though she said she did not.

Posted by abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz on August 03, 2010 at 03:34 PM EDT #

the witches thing seems very far fetched. i mean it would have nothing to do with any of the previous books.

im slightly confused i havent been on here in a while what are you guys talking about with the witches and all that?

Posted by katie mac on August 04, 2010 at 02:39 AM EDT #

First of all, I don't mind them being involved with magic or whatever, descendants of witches, as long as they don't do magic. I think that it would make the books really weird. Like, we all wanted a change but I think the witch and magic thing is going a bit far. I think as long as they don't DO magic it would be fine.

Posted by Hunter on August 04, 2010 at 09:01 AM EDT #

As for Noelle's scar, I really don't get why it's suddenly a big deal. A lot of people have scars. I have a scar. My sister has a scar. My dad has a scar. My brother has a scar. My sister's boyfriend has a scar. I think the scar is just one of the things she noticed about Noelle. I don't think it is anything major. She could have been in an accident, fallen, what does it matter? When you look at someone's scar, do you automatically think oh, she/he must have been through something really bad? The scar is really just another thing to characterize her looks. and if it's no big deal then why mention it? Say you were to right a description about a friend or yourself who has a big scar. are you going to leave that out? just because it's there doesn't mean it's a big deal.

Posted by Hunter on August 04, 2010 at 09:02 AM EDT #

@hunter THANK YOU. its a scar guys, if it hasn't been mentioned again since the first book obviously it's not a big deal. maybe she got lipo or something? lol jk, but no it doesn't sound very important or it would of been mentioned again, and OBVIOUSLY it has nothing to do with her being kidnapped in Scandal...

Posted by katie on August 04, 2010 at 10:35 AM EDT #

yeahh i forgot bout the scar...i really do wanna know where she got it from but i understand where people r coming from wen they say it might have no future meaning at all. Kate only mentiond it when she introducd the Billings girls into the story and she talkd bout how beautiful, perfect, and flawless they r like nothing could ever b as great as them. I think the scar was just kates way of making her seem not so perfect, like even Noelle Lange has dark secrets and hidden flaws, just to make her seem more real. or maybe it will be brought up again, who knows. like i said i do wanna hear more bout it. kate always keeps some mysteries alive lol : D

Posted by Kerri on August 04, 2010 at 11:09 AM EDT #

@hannah: It was from scandel. When Reed showed Noelle the picture out of the Billings book, Reed thought Noelle saw someone she knew. But then she closed the book saying she didn't reconize anyone. Maybe she really did reconize someone or maybe not... i don't know. it was just a thought

Posted by abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz on August 04, 2010 at 11:44 AM EDT #

i agree with you guys the scar has like no meaning with noelle being kidnapped but still i do want to no now just cuz it will bug me if we never find out cause remember in paradise lost it said noelle was the only other one in a one piece bathing suit other than reed? she never shows off her stomach maybe she's just hiding her scar?

Posted by katie mac on August 04, 2010 at 11:46 AM EDT #

@abcdefg... -That's interesting though. Maybe that does have something to do with it. I was rereading the series and I realized that there was quite a few hints that lead to arianna as a suspect but they were small ones ya know? so that could maybe lead to something to..

I know its highly unlikely that its ivy but there are things that could lead to her being the one that kidnapped noelle. like since her being friends with and living next to reed she would know if reed told or planned to. maybe she went to reed in the morning to see if reed would tell her? i know its unlikely but im just checking all the corners.

Posted by Vanessa on August 04, 2010 at 01:49 PM EDT #

omg im so excited for this book! i read private last november and fell in love! all my friends and i enjoy them. theyre amazing! keep it up(:

Posted by Kisten on August 04, 2010 at 02:46 PM EDT #

Ivy is too obvious to be Noelle's kidnapper.

Posted by Brittany on August 04, 2010 at 02:50 PM EDT #

LOL! You guys are too funny. I mean, have you read this page top to bottom? People ask about the website every couple comments. It is really funny. Then some of you totally freak. :D It is very amusing. THE WEBSITE IS WATERSTONES.COM PEOPLE!!! Haha. If you haven't read the whole page then this is some info I have gathered: It is a foreign site, most people don't believe it's legibility, the descriptions it gives is not the description on the back of the book, IT CONTAINS SPOILERS(obviously!), and if you ask Rebecca for it again I am pretty sure she might go into a nervous breakdown. I mean really people, stop hounding her for the e-mail to the site when it is posted right here on this page!

Posted by kelsea123 on August 04, 2010 at 05:58 PM EDT #

As for this chapter: I loved it. I hope there are tons of Reed/Josh scenes. I was really sad when they broke up. I wish it didn't take Reed going on ONE DATE with Sawyer to finally wake Josh up! He was a little bit hypocrytical: He totally dated Ivy and literally rubbed it in her face. Don't get me wrong, I am still Team Josh. But, yeah... And I have one random thought/question: Thomas gave Reed a subway token In Book 1. So where is it? If he had such an impact in her life don't you think that is an important detail that shouldn't be excluded? Sorry, I just had to get all that out.. :)

Posted by kelsea123 on August 04, 2010 at 05:59 PM EDT #

AND(Sorry I haven't been in on the stream) Ivy? Idk? But maybe. Kate likes to make her closest friends turn on her. AND in th waterstone summary for the next two books it didn't mention Ivy in them.... SO?

Posted by kelsea123 on August 04, 2010 at 06:21 PM EDT #

oh and if some of you children for some reason couldn't get chapter 1 open on your computer heres another link with it;;;; http://books.simonandschuster.com/Vanished/Kate-Brian/Private/9781416984719/excerpt

Posted by abrielle on August 04, 2010 at 06:48 PM EDT #

@kelsea: that is a good question! Where did the subway token go? And here's a random question: did anyone else feel ticked off at Noelle when she blamed Reed for being a year behind everyone else? I know this is waaaaay off the mark, but maybe Noelle faked her kidnapping so she could teach Reed a lesson about the BLS and to create drama about herself.

Posted by Aa on August 04, 2010 at 08:30 PM EDT #

@ Kelsea123 I don't think it mentions Ivy on any backs of the books :P but if it does, i don't remember ;P @Katie Mac, very interesting point, but I guess that's logical. If you have a gaping scar like that, wouldn't you want to cover it?

Posted by Hunter on August 04, 2010 at 08:31 PM EDT #

Have you guys ever thought about Taylor or Kiran? I mean yeah they're Noelle's closest friends, but maybe they have something to do with it. I know it's rediculous, but if Noelle came back into the story why can't those two come back as well? Also, have you noticed that Kate changes Josh's eye color. In Inner circle it was blue but then in Legacy it was green. I know this has nothing to do with anything. But that made me curious, on why Kate changed his eye color. Does he have contacts; which i highly doubt. Also, for noelle's kidnapping it could be Constance, Missy, etc. Whoever was aganist Reed for not getting into BLS. Maybe they wanted to teach Reed a lesson. I know you guys are thinking that it's Constance she can never do anything like that. But we all thought Ariana or Sabine wouldn't do it either. Just putting my guesses out there. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks!!

Posted by Ambika on August 04, 2010 at 10:20 PM EDT #

YO, GUYS THE STUFF ON THE WATERSTONES WEBSITE IS NOT TRUE. IT IS NOT ACCURATE. I'm just letting you know so all this can stop.

Posted by lindsay on August 04, 2010 at 10:49 PM EDT #

i dont think its any of the students in Easton.. thats just my opinion, but i dont think they have the access to know if Reed called the cops or, if she told the headmaster or anything. How would they know? i mean, its just what i think, ha. But i highly doubt that its the students from Easton.

Posted by jane on August 05, 2010 at 12:19 AM EDT #

@ Lindsay, how do you know it's not accurate?

Posted by Hunter on August 05, 2010 at 08:30 AM EDT #

@rebcecca could u please send me the link at jayb505@rocketmail.com

Posted by Jocelyn on August 05, 2010 at 09:49 AM EDT #

@Brittany I know, I said it was too obvious im just saying. With Kate, it could be anybody.

Posted by Vanessa on August 05, 2010 at 10:08 AM EDT #

cause i personally asked her myself because i wanted to know the truth so i messaged her and she said it's inaccurate.

Posted by lindsay on August 05, 2010 at 03:48 PM EDT #

@Lindsay, how did you contact her?

Posted by Ambika on August 05, 2010 at 04:22 PM EDT #

When is the next episode of the web series gunna come out?

Posted by Katelyn on August 05, 2010 at 05:25 PM EDT #

i'm not allowed to say how I contacted her. Just believe me she said both of the descriptions of Ominous and Book of Spells is inaccurate and I had to tell her how someone shared the link on this site so good luck

Posted by lindsay on August 05, 2010 at 06:02 PM EDT #

oh, well, I'm kind of relieved. the whole witchy thing is cool and all, but I didn't want the books to sddenly be about spells. I like the drama/murder thing we have going I have a question! You know how the books are cut down into sections? Like the Thomas murder, Cheyenne murder, vacation thing, and now the scandal one? Which was your favourite? Mine was Cheyenne murder :) I really liked it. Except for some silly mistakes, like changing eye colours and last names, but that has nothing to do with it lol :P

Posted by Hunter on August 05, 2010 at 10:09 PM EDT #

Posted by Iris on August 06, 2010 at 06:17 PM EDT #

WOW haven't been on in a while. Liking the theories. Glad that the summaries are inaccurate cuz I would hate to see Easton go all Hogwarts. I liked the reality of it all. I did think about Taylor and Kiran cuz we haven't seen them in a while. Miss them. AND yes to the subway token. AND yes to the scar thing. Its not a big deal but ppl are just curious to why such an imperfection on such a "perfection." I kinda wanted some dramatic story behind it! CANT WAIT!!!

Posted by Jennie on August 06, 2010 at 07:26 PM EDT #

Wow jennie u r such a freakk...this is not to make friends...

Posted by Sabine and Ariana on August 06, 2010 at 07:53 PM EDT #

UHM sry but I wasn't trying to make friends! I'm just putting my thoughts out there about something I am into, so unless that's a crime (which it isn't) don't talk to me that way EVER!

Posted by Sienna on August 06, 2010 at 08:21 PM EDT #

I don't like the cover of Vanished, I like the Ominous one though:D (if you don't know what it looks like, Google it) But I've always like the Private covers except Book of Spells and vanished.. weird

Posted by stephanie on August 06, 2010 at 08:38 PM EDT #

I cant wait for the vanished I've been waiting 4ever for it to come out.And im so sad that its coming to an end soon:(But it's gotta end sometime right? I just kinda hope they end it with her graduating.And as much as i hate to admit it scandel wasnt my fav of the series i mean it was good but there was just something about it that was really different from the rest of the series.By the way i think reed should have ended up with sawyer.i kinda miss all of the old characters like dash and taylor and is constance gonna be in the next books? But i never doubt kate i still believe that vanished will pull through with yet another great book:)

@ audrey Sorry that that site isn't accurate, but if you saw a site like that you probably would have thought it was the real deal. Only Kate really knows the real stuff because she is writing it.

Posted by Rebecca on August 07, 2010 at 06:38 PM EDT #

we all need to realize that this blog IS to make friends thats wat it says on the website i quote"only in kate brians blog u can make friends with other private fans" i unquote....duh if u paid attention u wud hav hav noticed...so stella if u dint want to make friends then dnt bother commenting on this blog...nd kathleen its none ur beeswax...nd mona was rite to make friends and the rest of u who were TORMENTED BY GET A LIFE HATERS...!!!!!

Posted by melissa on August 07, 2010 at 08:08 PM EDT #

actually, it says chat with private fans.. you guys seriously need a life if you come on here to "make friends" lmao like you're pathetic it;s fine to talk to people and conversate on here because that is the point, but we don't come here to make friends that's what school is for. Like i've sad before go to the clique blog and make friends there. So you're the ones who need a life.

Posted by stella on August 07, 2010 at 08:10 PM EDT #

@Rebecca I found out myself cause I got sick of people arguing about whether the website was fake so I messaged Kate and she said it was inaccurate.

i have an issue , when is the 2nd private web seris coming out . i went to the teen.com/private and it takes me to a page that says error every time ?

Posted by gabby on August 07, 2010 at 10:04 PM EDT #

why are some of you so hung up on the web series? if you live in the u.s the private DVD will be released sometime this month with the episodes all together or whatever if you don't live in the u.s i honestly don't know how you can view them. Maybe on the homepage of this website? if you watch the preview or whatever and then click through to the episodes, but it's like they aren't even good lol so idk why people are dying for a second season and such when there isn't going to be one cause they were so bad and shot on a budget of 50 cents. :p sorry, but it's kinda true I mean I know its a web show, but still.

Posted by Lucy on August 07, 2010 at 10:25 PM EDT #

enuf with "get a life" already besides u never told me to go the clique blog im not that mona girl im anonymous ok??? u are seriously hurting these people all they want is friends nd the time of day for u and others to talk to them...but ur just ssooo mean...u mite not be really friends but at least pretend...be nice or wat uve never heard of the word nice...gee ur cruel...

Posted by anonymous on August 07, 2010 at 10:29 PM EDT #

sorry darling, this isn't myspace, facebook, or aim it is a private BLOG where we chat about the books. they aren't five or at least i hope they aren't so we don't have to "pretend" anything. go look for friends elsewhere. You guys can talk to us here but just talk about the books or stuff we're talking about.

Posted by stella on August 07, 2010 at 11:09 PM EDT #

I agree this is to talk about the books, not to diss people and make them feel lame! @ Rebecca I know I'd get excited too haha and OMG I have a story on fanfiction.net too! Its called The First Noelle! I have read yours and like it A LOT!!!

that's all I'm saying ^

Posted by . on August 08, 2010 at 02:08 AM EDT #

I can't actually view the chapter for some reason :( It just froze up and I had to end the program. Anyway, finished reading Scandal today! As usual, very gripping. I've been reading through the comments and noticed that Jen, Graham and Sawyer's sister who committed suicide, hasn't been mentioned by anyone. Do you think she has anything to do with this? Obviously not the kidnapping, but do you think she (and Graham) might be significant to the plot in any way? As for Ivy, I think it would be too obvious for her to turn out evil. However, I do think that she might be hiding something - it was kind of suspicious how she forgave Reed all of a sudden. Sensing a 'Keep your friends close and your enemies closer' kind of thing maybe?

Posted by Grace on August 08, 2010 at 12:49 PM EDT #

someone up there in the conversations asked about josh's eye color. yes we know it changed throught the books. you arent the only one who caught it.

Posted by cecelia on August 08, 2010 at 02:36 PM EDT #

why r people arguing over the blog, if people wanna come on here to make friends then they can come on here and make friends and if they wanna talk about the books then they can talk about the book

How come when Josh was drugged and cheated on Reed, she forgave him? But when Reed was drugged and cheated on Josh, he wouldn't forgive her? Isn't it pretty much the same thing? Don't wrorry, I'm totally Team Rosh! They belong together<3

Posted by Lauren on August 09, 2010 at 01:56 PM EDT #

reed wasnt excactly drugged she was drunk but she still knew wat she was doing...kinda so there is a slight difference but u r kinda rite...but still josh was drugged with pills he had NO IDEA wat he was doing unlike reed who had known a bit wat she was doing nd she was flirting with dash a bit so.......

Posted by ivy on August 09, 2010 at 02:18 PM EDT #

that's too bad I use it. got a problem? don't care.

Posted by stella on August 09, 2010 at 02:41 PM EDT #

Reed was drugged remember? Sabine slipped ecstasy in her and Dash's drink? So yeah, but the reason Josh didn't forgive so easily is he didn't know heck reed didn't know that they were drugged he just thought she was a drunken mess and just let herself go to Josh's best friend. IF you guys remember in Inner Circle Reed didn't forgive Josh until she found out that Josh actually was drugged by the same pills Cheyenne used to "kill herself"

Posted by audrey on August 09, 2010 at 02:46 PM EDT #

oh yeah what Ivy said was right after the reed not being drugged haha :D cause remember her and Dash were flirting so you can't blame the whole thing on the drugs, but they made it seem like they wouldn't have done it if they were drunk but who knows

Posted by audrey on August 09, 2010 at 02:47 PM EDT #

ooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmgggggggggggg u are my favorite author i have been waititng for like forever for the book to come out but the library will take like forever to come out im going to go crazy if i dont get to read it in time ..................................

Posted by stella on August 09, 2010 at 04:40 PM EDT #

josh did forgive her even BEFORE he found out she was drugged remember when he came in her room in Revelation and she apologized he did cause he still loved her but he couldn't do anything about it cause he was with Ivy and yeah when Noelle found out reed was drugged she did forgive her just not completely cause of the whole thing of the best friend being with the boyfriend.

Posted by stella on August 09, 2010 at 10:37 PM EDT #

@ariel seriously, i agree with you. It would be better if Kate shut this whole blog thing. i mean, i love this site and this blog. It was a way for me to know what others think about the books and all, but now its nothing more than just a chatting room... Especially with the drama and all.... And kate might actually shut this place if people ignore the purpose of the blog...So, if we dont want this blog getting shut down lets not pay attention to those people who sit behind computers and waste their time being ignorant haha. (:

@ivy haha ohmy gosh. you got the wrong idea of what i wrote. DId i ever say kate was going to shut the site down? uhm, yeah NO so next time read it carefully before stating stuff like "your 2 lame" and i would love to now who you are, but no you want to start drama again. sorry for everyone. haha. your so funny thanks for entertaining me, and i dont want you talking to me. im pretty sure kate wouldnt like it if dumb people like you starts dissing fans here and saying stuff like shut up, your so lame. and what not. and yeah i love this site. unlike you, i dont ruin this site. now read it again so u understand what im sayin before u start some unnecessary drama with people.

lov this blog no point in making it a chat sit

Posted by celeste on August 10, 2010 at 10:13 AM EDT #

bout Reed being druggd, i think she was less out of it than Josh bcuz she only had ectasy and she was concious of wat she was doing even tho she wudnt hav done it if she was sober. and Josh had really strong drugs and he alredy was on like a dozen pills for his other [problems so he was just completely gonee, so Josh is more inocent then Reed but im still super happy that theyre back together!!! there so perfecttt

Posted by Kerri on August 10, 2010 at 11:01 AM EDT #

Wow haven't been on here in a while, i just went through and read every single comment, alot of it was pretty funny. I AM SUPER EXCITED ABOUT VANISHED COMING IN A FEW DAYS!I honestly don't think it's Ivy, ever since Legacy it has seemed like Ivy has been behind almost everything but it's never been her, and i don't think it is now.

Posted by Genelle on August 10, 2010 at 12:08 PM EDT #

ur still lame but dnt get offended im just saying. no biggy...nd i think ur right why am i making mor drama???actually i only intended to make a small convo with u....k guess wer dun here.see?small convo.bye.btw luv the books

Posted by ivy on August 10, 2010 at 01:09 PM EDT #

wow thats like the nicest thing u said to me"your welcome"

Posted by anonymous on August 10, 2010 at 01:12 PM EDT #

@Kerri, I absolutely agree, but I don't blame reed. I mean, she was drunk on top of that, and the ecstacy kind of makes you want to jump any guy you're talking to, makes you lusttt :) What sucks is that if she'd stuck with josh, she probs would have just ended up hooking up with him at the Legacy and not Dash. Because he would have gone up top the roof with her :P But yeah, I don't blame Josh at all for what happened between him and Cheyenne. I mean, the pill itself was bad enough, but mix that with other pills and you are wonked :P And all it tok was a fake text from josh's phone to Cheyenne, telling her to go to where Josh was and then BAM! It was obvious Josh was innocent because even if he had purposely cheated on Reed, he would have jumped up to apologize and try to explain, he wouldn't have just sat there staring at her :P

Posted by Hunter on August 10, 2010 at 03:43 PM EDT #

HELP GUYS! i need you help! can't........tell.........you.........why.....bye

Posted by Noelle Lange on August 10, 2010 at 04:02 PM EDT #

OMG ITS NOELLE!!!! lolol well, i hope there's josh n reed romance as she's all stressed out cuz of noelle, i have a feeling we're going to find out about that mysterious scar on noelle's belly... at least i hope soo.

Posted by justine anna wallace who is the #1 fan lol on August 10, 2010 at 04:05 PM EDT #

Seriously? You guys REALLY think the scar is somehow connected to her kidnapping? When she's had the scar for how long? No, absolutely not you gotta find a better theory then that. The scar is irrelevant it was something MENTIONED stop getting all worked up about it lol i'm just saying if t was that important it would of been mentioned haha I love how crazy you guys are getting over a scar.

Posted by jenna on August 10, 2010 at 04:34 PM EDT #

@jenna-i hav 2 agree wit her becuz u guys r getin crazy over 1 litle scar.....

Posted by sienna on August 10, 2010 at 05:25 PM EDT #

I mean it was a simple observation... how do you know it has any purpose? and Who cares anyway haha like there are wayyyy more important things to figure out.

Posted by Stella on August 10, 2010 at 05:58 PM EDT #

wat r u talking about???

Posted by anonymous on August 10, 2010 at 06:07 PM EDT #

i know excactly what shes talking about...my scar.i know you guys are wondering about it...but just give it up.Vanished will NOT talk about it at ALL.The books never will...or maybe they will...:)>

Posted by Noelle L. on August 10, 2010 at 06:11 PM EDT #

I'm not talking to you, anonymous.

Posted by stella on August 10, 2010 at 07:11 PM EDT #

neither was I,stella

Posted by ITS ANONYMOUS on August 10, 2010 at 07:21 PM EDT #

If the scar is important...then it's important, if it isn't..it just isn't.It's all up to Kate, when it needs to be mentioned it will be.Oh and about Reed and Josh i absolutely adore them together, and Josh was absolutely more justified in what happened between him and Cheyenne.But at the same time they were both in uncontrollable situations,plus Reed might not have been so willing to go up to the roof if her and Josh hadn't already gotten into that argument.And i think Josh realized that Reed was innocent, especially when Sabine came out and confessed, but whatever, those two belong together. Every couple has their ups and downs.

Posted by Genelle on August 10, 2010 at 07:27 PM EDT #

lol okay well quit trying to get in our convo if you've read the book series you would know what we are discussing since you don't. then obviously no one wants you in the convo. <3 going back to ignoring you.

Posted by stella on August 10, 2010 at 07:39 PM EDT #

Just noticed that the guy that playes Thomas in the webseries is in pretty little liars lol

Posted by Genelle on August 10, 2010 at 07:42 PM EDT #

omgosh luv the series btw genelle even though reed went up to the roof dosnt mean she went there cuz of her argument with josh she went there becuz she was drunk and curious well i guess it was also becuz pf her argument becuz she neede sum time to think...nd i already asked kate brian about the scar and if shes gunna mention it...so...

Posted by ITS ANONYMOUS on August 10, 2010 at 08:08 PM EDT #

OMG i wish thomas was still alive!!! he was the best character and i am so xited for this new book, i wish they would continue the web series. i wish it had been a at tv series though, with like 40 min. episodes or something.... and the book comes out on my bday!! speaking of that, i want to hit 150 subbers on my youtube channel by my bday so can checkout my channel: gossipgirl11968 btw if anyone else has a youtube channel i would love to check it out =) AGHHH i am so xited!

Posted by yasmin on August 11, 2010 at 10:41 AM EDT #

Dude u guys check out this fanfiction story. It's called She so Vanished! It's so cool. Its about the next book Vanished. YOU GUYS NEED TO READ IT. Reed actually sounds like Reed in this story.

Posted by Sadie on August 11, 2010 at 11:51 AM EDT #

WHY do people still like Thomas?! He is hot, but that's about it! Have you forgotten he is a PLAYER as well as a dealer?? If Thomas wasn't gone, he would have dumped Reed the second he spotted a new girl. Just like he dumped Ariana for Reed, and how he dumped his previous girl for Ariana. The cycle continues over and over and over. Seriously people. What's so good about Thomas anyway?

Posted by Aa on August 11, 2010 at 12:48 PM EDT #

i loved thomas cuz he was a badboy! but yea he would have dumped reed but i still would have loved him cuz he had a certain charm and a crazy, fun life...until arianna...

Posted by yasmin on August 11, 2010 at 01:06 PM EDT #

Have you guys ever even read last christmas though? or atleast the first chapter? for thomas, it was different with reed. there waaas something there. he was going to change for her and that time he actually meant it. it was sweet :)

Posted by Vanessa on August 11, 2010 at 03:40 PM EDT #

u guys shud stop talking about thomas like who cares about him...1st the scar now thomas????

Posted by ivy on August 11, 2010 at 03:44 PM EDT #

Posted by Stella S on August 11, 2010 at 08:01 PM EDT #

@Stella S, I HAV 2 AGREE WITH U IT HAS MOST DEFINETLY BECUM A CHATROOM NOW...

Posted by ivy on August 11, 2010 at 09:28 PM EDT #

I agree with Vanessa if u read Last Christmas u wudve known that he was planning on coming clean about everything becuz he was in love with Reed and thought she deservd better. Thats partly why Ariana killd him so he wudnt tell about her murders, so yeah i do in a way wish she cudve been with thomas longer but then there wud be no reed and Josh and there even moreee perfect <3 btw i just realized i cant remember the release date to Vanished! i think its August 30th? but im not sure so cud someone tell my the official date pleezz thanx : )

Posted by skye on August 11, 2010 at 10:14 PM EDT #

@ Genelle, reed went up to the roof because Sabine gave her the npote that was apparently from Dash :P But if her and Josh had been together, sabine probably wouldn't have given her the note until she was alone so....? I can't wait for Vanished! I'm so excited :)

Posted by Hunter on August 12, 2010 at 11:18 AM EDT #

@Hunter, Reed didn't know that the note was from Dash.Sabine told her a girl gave it to her, and she had given a note to Dash too

Posted by genelle on August 12, 2010 at 11:49 AM EDT #

What I want to know is what happens with upton cause didn't they agree to go to Paris or something over spring vacation?? What's gonna happen when she sees him again?? And Sawyer was so sweet and I want him and reed to become friends again:( he seems so nice and sweet if he were real I would totaly date him.

Posted by Ali:) on August 12, 2010 at 12:38 PM EDT #

i dont remember anything about noelle having a scar! can someone tell me what book they said something about a scar so i can go read it again?

Posted by Cecelia on August 12, 2010 at 12:49 PM EDT #

Wow, just like the last post we have people who has no lives spamming everything. Seriously, talk about the books or don't come on here. Simple.

Posted by Brittany on August 12, 2010 at 02:18 PM EDT #

@cecilia,it mentioned noelle having the scar in the first book Private...its at the very beginning where reed first sees the billings girls wen shes spying on them...

Posted by ivy on August 12, 2010 at 04:03 PM EDT #

Hey guys.. Chill! This is a PRIVATE series blog. We talk about things PRIVATE related. Which includes Thomas and the scar. Just saying.

Posted by Carly on August 12, 2010 at 05:28 PM EDT #

@Carly and Emily, i completely agree with you, i think it's just really easy for people to get distracted from another comment, or people just take things the wrong way.But YAY! 19 MORE DAYS!!

Does anybody have any idea who Noelle kidnapper might be? Gah, i cannot wait till Vanished! And @emily, i seriously agree with you. Months ago, i never saw people just causing problems on a book website.

Posted by Brittany on August 13, 2010 at 12:01 AM EDT #

@ Genelle, yeah, I know she didn't know, but when she got up to the roof, she was supposed to think it was from Dash because he was there. But if her and Josh weren't fighting,and she was with him, she probably would have gone up to the roof with him, and it would have all been avoided :(

Posted by Hunter on August 13, 2010 at 08:48 AM EDT #

Kate, I always support you and I am really interested in getting the web series in Canada. Everyone here loves you, so why not show the love back? PLEASE.

Posted by Madison on August 13, 2010 at 10:40 AM EDT #

@Sienna i found the N! I'm so proud. how did u come up with that lol

Posted by genelle on August 13, 2010 at 11:56 AM EDT #

@Hunter, you're absolutely right. Reed never seems tho think clearly whenever her life depends on it.

Posted by genelle on August 13, 2010 at 11:58 AM EDT #

That would end both Private and privilege novels for good there.

Posted by Ardian on August 13, 2010 at 12:23 PM EDT #

@Brittany I know right? Like the blogs were during the webisodes foreeverrr ago. lol Those were much better.

Posted by Emily <3 on August 13, 2010 at 01:58 PM EDT #

Does anyone know where the Private web series went? I can only find the first one and the trailer on the site!!1 UGH!!! Also a while ago I heard from someone on this site that they were going to put the Private web series on DVDs so everyone could buy them, is that true?

Posted by Rebecca Hollis on August 13, 2010 at 02:05 PM EDT #

Found the N! lol

Posted by Kerri on August 13, 2010 at 02:11 PM EDT #

Posted by Rebecca on August 13, 2010 at 04:52 PM EDT #

@rebecca hollis - play the trailer, and once it finishes, at the VERY end it has all these thumbnails. roll your mouse over each one. it'll say ep. 1-20 and just click on one.

Posted by ivy on August 13, 2010 at 06:07 PM EDT #

no don't be lazy it's not that hard to scroll up like 10 posts to find what we are talking about.

Posted by sara on August 13, 2010 at 06:20 PM EDT #

Some of you need to find things for yourself. Instead of asking others things you can simply find out on your own if you had a brain :) sorry it's the truth argue all you want.

Posted by sara on August 13, 2010 at 06:22 PM EDT #

I'm the only one who asked for it. If it's really that hard for you to write for a minute and explain what it is, your really selfish. When people wanted to know the Waterstones website that I mentioned, I was willing and gave the information to everyone who wanted the links. You don't have to write snide remakes to people that's just plain rude.

Posted by Rebecca on August 13, 2010 at 06:44 PM EDT #

You're NOT the only person who asked I've seen like 10 people ask that in previous blogs as well and quite frankly you should of never gave the waterstones links out cause it was false anyway.. so you got everyones hopes up for nothing so your argument is invalid. In all honesty, I'm sick of seeing the same stuff on here people asking questions that have been answered 100 times, stupid comments that make it seem like you have no brain, arguing, etc. So this isn't just all on you.

Posted by sara on August 13, 2010 at 08:48 PM EDT #

Whoa chill out guys! Ure fighting about finding an "N" in a line of M's! That is completely and utterly ridiculous, just saying! So don't bite my head off for getting into this just wanted to point it out to you! ANYWAY @ Ivy I go back to school the 23rd so I get your feelings right now! it sucks but at least we will have Vanished very soon to begin the year off right! AND ABOUT THE WEB SERIES: if you go to the verrrrry end of the teaser trailer there are thumbnails of the episodes labeled 1-20! You should be able to watch them then before they come out on DVD (whenever that is)! :]

Posted by Jennie on August 13, 2010 at 09:02 PM EDT #

@sara,u need to chill out we dnt need more ppl causing problems

Posted by ivy on August 13, 2010 at 11:28 PM EDT #

wow ur all a bunch of 2 year olds if ur fighting on here

Posted by jess on August 14, 2010 at 12:08 AM EDT #

^ hence why i come on here like every 5 months plus they're a lot of immature juvenile people here but i just ignore there comments unless I'm talking to them

Posted by sara on August 14, 2010 at 12:12 AM EDT #

@ivy i don't believe I gave you permission to speak. so your argument is invalid. so irrelevant

Posted by sara on August 14, 2010 at 12:13 AM EDT #

I'm not trying to get involved in all of this, but it's like no matter what you say on here you can end up starting a fight because some people take things the wrong way, etc. That's why there is always drama on this site because people can't just ignore what people say I mean you don't know them in real life so it's like why bother fighting with them? It's just not worth it. You just got to be mature adolescents or whatever you guys are adults, preteens whatever lol and just don't pay attention. :) end of my little pointless rant

Posted by audrey on August 14, 2010 at 12:19 AM EDT #

so, i know this is none of my buisness, but she was right telling rebecca what she wanted to know since you wouldnt. and how can anyone know your being sarcastic when its just a text your reading, its not like you can hear what the person is saying. you say it the way to want to. it might not be the way you wanted it to be said. and you guys are saying retarded, when you shouldnt say that. my cousin is retarded and its really hurtfull to hear people just say that when its not their fault at all! so watch what you say it can hurt some poeples feelings.

Posted by Cecelia on August 14, 2010 at 12:34 AM EDT #

@ Sara why don't you go hibernate and come back in 5 months you're causing too many problems

Posted by Rebecca on August 14, 2010 at 12:45 AM EDT #

*Sigh* now you're getting me going Cecelia i hate when people say the whole thing on "retarded" first of all when someone calls you retarded they mean stupid... I'm not attacking mentally disabled people... retarded and mentally disabled to me are two different things, so chill out. and once again @rebecca don't mean to sound seven, but do not tell me what to do because I will do the exact opposite I don't even know for a fact if i caused problems on this site, but if i did oh well:3 you guys can simply ignore me if you want, I'm allowed on this website as much as the rest of you

Posted by Janet on August 14, 2010 at 10:31 AM EDT #

I haven't been on here in forever. THIS SITE IS SO AMUSING TO READ. My day has been so boring today, an oh, look at that, the drama on here is amusing.

Posted by Julie on August 14, 2010 at 01:04 PM EDT #

@ Ivy, Sienna, and Ashley I go to an all girls private school in San Diego CA! It's kind of like Easton with the strict rules minus the hot guys like Josh,Thomas, and Dash! :[ But as for the web series I am so sorrrrrrrry! I hadn't re-watched them in forever and I have no idea what happened to the thumbnails at the end of the trailer. So now I am just as clueless to where we find them as you are! Again I'm really sorry! AND again I'm going to reiterate if you're not posting comments about the book, you shouldn't be commenting at all. These fights are f**king ridiculous! Just saying! Think about it: we're not 6 years old anymore!

Posted by Jennie on August 14, 2010 at 01:11 PM EDT #

I'm so ready for vanished. I wish it would come out before my school year started, i go back to school on the 18th and im dreading it 100%

Posted by Jennie on August 15, 2010 at 12:39 AM EDT #

@sarah, they mean the same f*ing thing! yes she is disabled and "retarded". your saying someone is retarded is just making the feel even worse! they didnt want to have problems! how would you like you barley even be able to pick your head up!!! or move your hand. saying someone is stupid is saying they have a problem. saying they werent thinking the right way. or werent thinking right is a whole lot better than saying retarded. this is bull sh*t that your not thinking about what people are going through.

Posted by Cecelia on August 15, 2010 at 01:07 AM EDT #

omg I haven ignored all of your comments but cecelia you sound like a retardd i said it what are you going to do? huh? I can say whatever I want and if you don't like it don't comment about it and ignore it, if you're going to be offended by words then I feel sorry for you the next time someone cusses you out. Just leave me be okay?

Okay guys I know this is like way a long time ago, but I haven't been on this site in days, so anyone with the link for that huge spoiler, @Rebecca, or anyone who asked her for it? can you please send it to me? I'm so sorry, if you still can! my email is fatpigsgomoo@yahoo.com

alright. scratch that last comment. i found it haha.

Posted by Jillian on August 16, 2010 at 03:18 AM EDT #

Someone asked Kate about that site and she said it was accurate. Just to let you know. I still think the descriptions are kind of true, but I'll never know until the books comes out.

Posted by Rebecca on August 16, 2010 at 09:49 AM EDT #

That someone was me Rebecca and she said it was INaccurate. Meaning not true...

Posted by lindsay on August 16, 2010 at 11:30 AM EDT #

and?

Posted by Rebecca on August 16, 2010 at 11:57 AM EDT #

some guesses and opinons i have, feel free to discuss, i'm different rebeca, in case taht was not clear. i love jasper and sawyer. palmer is boring. adam is interesting, i think that , like he listen to ariana meeting, he saw ariana kill kiran (some1 obvi. saw) lexa is an old enemy of BL from camp, instead of a frined. i agree with real BLS tapping Reed theory. extended idea- noelle is also tapped but gets an easier task, finding right person to save her, which of couse would be her best friend reed. gtg

Posted by Rebecca Stanley on August 16, 2010 at 12:12 PM EDT #

You said they were accurate I was just correcting you considering accurate and inaccurate are two different things.:)

Posted by lindsay on August 16, 2010 at 12:27 PM EDT #

and it's a foreign website? Foreign people get the books way after the U.S so what makes you think they'd have the descriptions before us? Just saying

Posted by Janet on August 16, 2010 at 02:03 PM EDT #

It was the links to the web site waterstones where it gave false (didn't know at the time and someone messaged Kate and she confirmed it wasn't true) descriptions for the up coming books in the private series.

Posted by Rebecca on August 16, 2010 at 03:09 PM EDT #

@janet....dnt be sooo stupid

Posted by poppy on August 16, 2010 at 03:48 PM EDT #

i'm sorry but i kind of agree with poppy, the links have been mentioned 500 times and have been posted so many times it doesn't matter anymore the links are false everyone move on and I'm not referring to Rebecca or Lindsay cause it's not Rebecca's fault people ask a bunch of times.

Posted by kelsey on August 16, 2010 at 04:30 PM EDT #

@kelsey and janet.........yeah i agree with u kelsey....and janet maybe ur not that stupid but seriously think and look up at the other comments right there dnt be lazy instead of asking ppl its like right in front of u...sorry but its true

Posted by poppy on August 16, 2010 at 05:04 PM EDT #

sorryy, i knew about the waterstones. i just was excited because i thought it was something else. like about vanished or something. sorry.

Posted by Janet on August 16, 2010 at 05:57 PM EDT #

mann i love private and privilege so much but it really sucks that the books are so far spread out from each other because its been so long and ive read so many other books in the meantime that im starting to forget what happened but i dont want to read all of those dang books over again to remember every little detail lol.... i wish i would of found out about these books after they were already out so i would of been able to read them all at once. the wait is killing meeee!!!!!

Posted by LIKEEOHHMYGAWD on August 16, 2010 at 10:11 PM EDT #

guys, you know it's not kate writing these posts right? it even says the author of this one is the pneditor. that's not kate. kate doesn't care about private anymore, and she probably has ghostwriters writing the series.

Posted by Gemma on August 16, 2010 at 11:35 PM EDT #

Figured. She has other more important books to write.

Posted by Rebecca on August 17, 2010 at 12:11 AM EDT #

FOURTEEN DAYSSSS

Posted by Janet on August 17, 2010 at 08:34 AM EDT #

Okay, so, last night at ten pm I started reading She's So Dead To Us and continued reading until five thiry this morning, when I finished it. I know, I'm a really slow reader, but what I guess I'm trying to say is that that book was so good that I couldn't even put it down for a nights sleep when I was only on page one hundred! I just knew that I wasn't going tp put this book down until I finished it! And I must say, if far far surpassed my expectations of the book. Amazing! At first, as things came to a close, I thought that this was only going to be one novel, and not a series, because of the happy ending. But, wow, the last fifteen pages turned everything around! And I'm not even sad! Because I can't wait to read more if it! But, I swear to God, Ally and Jake are meant to be so if he gets with Shannen, I may burn the books! I also liked the pretty names :) Some of them, I mean, I loved. except for Hammond...

Posted by Hunter on August 17, 2010 at 08:52 AM EDT #

Oh? I think I may also understand why Kate doesn't blog as much as she used too... I mean, while juggling her career, her social life, she has a baby to take care of. or I'm not sure how old he is, but that's what it said in the acknowledgements for the book.

Posted by Hunter on August 17, 2010 at 08:54 AM EDT #

Wow last night I watched 'The Devil Wears Prada' and Marada had an unnamed assistant type person who looked EXACTLY like the red head (I think she's Pagie's Mom) on 'Paradise Lost' and 'Suspision'!!!! She looks closer to the picture on 'Suspison' (on the back cover)because her hair is lighter. But I can't find either of there names on the internet!!! UGH!!! Does anyone know where to find there names? THANKS!!

Posted by Rebecca Hollis on August 17, 2010 at 01:20 PM EDT #

that's very inconsiderate of you guys to say she doesn't care if she didn't care she wouldn't have finished writing the series and she does write them obviously.. and duh she has so much other things to do like Rebecca said, be a little understanding and put yourself in her shoes. She does care or she wouldn't be a writer.

Posted by lindsay on August 17, 2010 at 04:02 PM EDT #

I totally agree, lindsay. I mean, she does us a big favour by even having a blog, and she is already writing a bazillion books. people shouldn't get mad or upset because she hasn't blogged in a while. She doesn't have to have a blog, so everyone should be happy that she does. She has her own personal life, as well as a career and family. And seriously, if you love this writer so much, you should let her be.

Posted by Hunter on August 17, 2010 at 05:42 PM EDT #

oh and about them being spread about.. averagly for books in a series you have too wait a whole eyar we wait basically nothing like for ex. Suspicion came out sept. 8th 2009 then we also have privelege to keep us busy so then after Perfect Mistake 10/27/09.. that's basically a little over a month of wait and then Scandal came out 3/9/10... you guys get it? It's really not that long of a wait

Posted by lindsay on August 17, 2010 at 09:32 PM EDT #

Is Hunter g a y?

Posted by Phoenix on August 17, 2010 at 09:49 PM EDT #

Okay, who ever is whining and complaing about Kate not updating: Get. A. Freakin. Life. Kate Brian is not obligated to update a blog. Kate Brian doesn't even have to have a blog, but she does anyway. Why? Because she wants to interact with her fans, and have her fans interact with other fans about the Private series. Just because Kate actually has a LIFE and actually has to write something OTHER than the Private series doesn't mean she doesn't care. So is that like having three children but only favoring one because it's the oldest? So you're saying Kate should by devoted to Private and Private only? She's not allowed to write other books? You people are pathetic. Well, just thought I'd share my two cents. Have fun acting like spoiled brats.

Posted by Aa on August 17, 2010 at 10:26 PM EDT #

GOODNESS AFTER SCANDAL I WAS GOING INSANE. PLEASE KEEP JOSH AND REED TOGETHER <3 CANT WAIT TO FINISH VANISHED! ps. more josh, less billings. <3 ty ily

Posted by Su on August 17, 2010 at 10:32 PM EDT #

I'm not sure about you guys, but I want Billings back. As in, the dorm. I just can't help but remembering the first book when Reed walks into her dorm with Constance and sees all her stuff is missing. She goes outside and Noelle calls her and beckons her inside of Billings. I loved the initial rush and thrill of the idea of the elite Billings House and the power the girls held. All of Noelle's clever put downs and just the way she talked had me so captivated with her character.Now in Scandal she is being very whiny and not like herself. And basically all the original Billings girls (Noelle, Ariana, Kiran, Taylor, Natasha, etc.) are gone and with them the mystique and power that Billings once had has left too. Billings House is the origin of this series and taking it away takes away a huge piece of the series. I don't know if anyone agrees that's just how I feel.

Posted by Marie on August 17, 2010 at 11:23 PM EDT #

@Marie yes i totally agree, i mean i still love the books and i feel even though Noelle has changed, reed is still the same character so that makes me happy. i def wud loveee if Billings comes bak and i think Noelle shud b the one to bring it bak to redeem herself as the girl nobody messes with : )

Posted by Kerri on August 18, 2010 at 11:30 AM EDT #

@ Pheonix, I'm a girl.... I used to have it put in the name up there, but I took it down, figuring everyone knew already. But I guess I'll have to keep it in with all of the new comers and such. And I know, it's a guys name. I hate it.

Posted by Beth on August 18, 2010 at 06:36 PM EDT #

Which do you think is better...privilege or private?? Private all the way!!

Posted by Beth on August 18, 2010 at 06:38 PM EDT #

Private, but sweet deceit was 10 xs better than Scandal in my opinion and you're right, beth about privilege ending but theres going to be one more left after pure sin i think

oh my god. you guys seriously, PLEASE for the love of god stop asking for the links. They are not accurate and she is no longer giving it out okay? Is that not clear or do you need me to say it in Spanish? and if you're just asking cause you think it's funny then that just makes you more pathetic

Posted by abrielle on August 19, 2010 at 08:27 PM EDT #

@ Kerri and Marie I 200% completely and totally agree! I want Billings, the actual physical dorm back! And I want Noelle to do it! She made Billings what it was, so it only seems fit! I hate the BLS idea! IDK why but i guess it was the mystery of the actaul house and the girls in it. I miss the original girls too! Anybody else with me!?!?! BTW @ have a nice day do you know where I can find the link??? (and ure threat wont bug us just to let you know!)

Posted by Jennie on August 19, 2010 at 08:31 PM EDT #

does anyone know how many books are left in the private series and what they're called?

Posted by rebecca on August 19, 2010 at 08:49 PM EDT #

@ Rebecca All we know for now is that there are gonna be 3 more! Vanished (August 31st). Ominous (February 22nd). AND we have no idea the title of the supposed last one in the series! Hope it helps!

Posted by Jennie on August 19, 2010 at 08:59 PM EDT #

@Aa....hahaha,your such a hypocrite. Your telling us how we have no life, but you do realize that your on here talking on here as well, complaining- as if anybody cares. Obviously you have nothing better to do than just causing unnecessary problems. Yes, Kate doesn't have to respond or write a new blog, but that doesn't mean you can't just write a blog every 4-5 months. So stop the b.s.

Posted by Brittany on August 19, 2010 at 09:01 PM EDT #

oh and other rebecca, could you send me the link to that website? or just anyone else who happens to see this. my email is camp_girl26@yahoo.com thanks so much!

Posted by rebecca on August 19, 2010 at 09:02 PM EDT #

Scrolling down the comments and it's not surprising that i find someone who complains. Once again. Directing @Aa. First off, i don't think anyone is complaining about the fact Kate isn't updating, but you do know that her last blog had over 1000 comments? You can at least update for 2-3 weeks. Fine. But 3-4 months? Not so much. You dedicate over 7 sentences to complain how we have no lives and are spoiled brats, but yet still your here wining like some 4 year old baby. Don't like it, you can leave. Your generalizing. Stop it. It's annoying to come here and find someone spamming up this once great blog.

I'm rereading ALL the Private series!!! The first book is way different than the last book, different vibes. I'm just gonna cry again when I get to Legacy and Ambition. Josh and Reed broken up = not OK

Posted by Rebecca on August 20, 2010 at 12:02 AM EDT #

Haha, well, I guess I am a hypocrite! It was just making me very mad and upset how people kept complaining how Kate didn't care about the Private books anymore, just because she doesn't blog as often as she should. I just thought that was a very silly reason to hate on Kate.

Posted by Aa on August 20, 2010 at 10:07 AM EDT #

And you guys are exactly right! I shouldn't have to "spam" this "once great" blog if I want to get my own opinion across! I have as much right to "spam" this blog all I want, just as Kate Brian has the right to update whenever she wants to. Even if it's 2-3 weeks, or 2-3 months! But I will stop being a whiner now and leave you all here to enjoy this wonderful blog! :)

Posted by Aa on August 20, 2010 at 10:13 AM EDT #

@Aa....yeah i am right. You shouldn't be spamming this once great blog. If you haven't noticed, we have haters and lovers from Eharmony coming on here. Yeah so again with my point- i wouldn't care if it's 2-3 weeks, but 4-5 months? Common now. I understand she has books to write, but who reads them? Her readers.

Posted by Alexandra on August 20, 2010 at 04:57 PM EDT #

Also, Brittany isn't hating on Kate at all. She's basically saying shew can post a post atleast once or twice a month. But w.e

i know this has nothing to do with vanished, but can anyone tell me where i can find the web series? episode 1 only shows up on the web series page and i reeeeally want to see how different it is from the books. thanks a bunch!

Posted by desperate on August 20, 2010 at 07:41 PM EDT #

I love your books so much! They are my all-time FAVORITES! This series is amazing! I am sooo excited for August 31st, when vanished comes out! I just read the first chapter, and it looks realllllly good! Thanks so much and keep writing them!!!!!! :) <3

another question that is asked 50 times a week...

Posted by stella on August 20, 2010 at 08:14 PM EDT #

@ desperate I wish I could tell you, but no one knows where they went! The DVD of them comes out the 24th of this month! But for now you can only watch the trailer and the 1st episode! =(

Posted by Jennie on August 20, 2010 at 08:26 PM EDT #

@Jennie thanks so much! @Stella get over yourself, kthnxxxx

Posted by desperate on August 21, 2010 at 11:22 AM EDT #

Don't ask dumb questions that have been asked over 100 times and maybe I will <3

Posted by stella on August 21, 2010 at 11:28 AM EDT #

This blog has truly become ridiculous all anyone does on here is argue and complain and it is true like everyone please stop asking about the link she(Rebecca) is no longer giving it out and neither should anyone else it has been mentioned before, but since some of you are obviously incapable of going back to read through, the link is INACCURATE meaning not true/real so therefore theres no point to give it out, no? The other question asked so many times is the webseries seriously... maybe if you took a tour around the website you'd see clear as day that it says the dvd will be released next week so I guess you just have to not be lazy in order to figure out these things yourself. Now I honestly, tried being nice saying these things so people won't blow up and take things out of proportion, but this is all really too much

Posted by abrielle on August 21, 2010 at 11:36 AM EDT #

@stella sorry we're all not perfect like you :( get off your high horse. @abrielle you do realize you're just contributing to all of the complaining and arguing, right?

Posted by desperate on August 21, 2010 at 12:19 PM EDT #

@desperate, your doing the contributing too....abrielle has a point. Just drop the links. It's not real and when i checked it didn't seem realistic. Just read the books and find out yourselves.

Posted by Brittany on August 21, 2010 at 12:48 PM EDT #

no one said I'm perfect what does perfection have to do with you asking questions cause you're too lazy to scrool through? didn't think so.

Posted by stella on August 21, 2010 at 01:46 PM EDT #

Thank you @Brittany, I appreciate it. and no actually @desperate I'm more ranting than anything and like Brittany said you're doing the exact same thing so it's kind of hypocritical for you to say that.

Posted by abrielle on August 21, 2010 at 01:58 PM EDT #

tell me about it...stella just is selfish and only htinks of herself....

hey, i was just wondering if you would be able to get the web series of private on your website that allows australians to view it? cause i can watch the first episode which is separate to the trailer but i cant watch the trailer which has all the other episodes on it. thanks and btw i love the books:)

go die in a fire. :D

Posted by . on August 22, 2010 at 10:30 AM EDT #

everytime i come on this site, i'm expecting comments about the books and questions about the web series, etc. if somebody asks a simple question, someone else pounces on them because apparently they need to read the comments above. well, not everyone likes to scroll up 100+ comments for an answer, so a simple answer would be appreciated. if you don't want to answer it, move on. i'm just saying we should get over the littlest conflicts and focus on the fact that noelle's life is on the line here.

Posted by allie on August 22, 2010 at 05:06 PM EDT #

okay first of all, its not questions that have been answered 2 or 3 times they are questions that have been asked and answered 35 times with explanations that bother some of us. Or questions that are so old.

Posted by stella on August 22, 2010 at 05:29 PM EDT #

Still don't have any leads for Noelle's capturer besides Noelle....lol....any leads anyone?

Posted by Brittany on August 22, 2010 at 07:51 PM EDT #

Ivy kidnapped Reed. I know it.

Posted by Rebecca on August 22, 2010 at 08:15 PM EDT #

************I’m so glad I’m rereading the Private series. I picked up on some things I didn’t know before/ forgot like, Reed’s middle name is Myra, and Josh’s parents are world-renowned philanthropists. Plus Josh suffers from depression, anxiety, insomnia, and seizures. I just knew he had mental problems, I didn’t know what he suffered from.

Posted by Rebecca on August 22, 2010 at 08:24 PM EDT #

@rebecca those are all very interesting points, now i realized Josh is just as rich as Thomas, Noelle, etc he's just much better at hiding it haha cause philanthropists make a sh*t load of money. What else didn't you notice before?

Posted by audrey on August 22, 2010 at 08:36 PM EDT #

@ audrey don't philanthropists like give their money away and work for like a charity? & I'm still reading, I'm on the four book now.

Posted by Sadie on August 22, 2010 at 09:18 PM EDT #

I just used my dog's name btw, if your confused.

Posted by Sadie on August 22, 2010 at 09:26 PM EDT #

@sadie oh lmaoooo yeah they do, but they also get a lot of money as well, but you're right they do work for charities and stuff.

Posted by audrey on August 22, 2010 at 09:33 PM EDT #

OMG I F-IN LOVE THE PRIVATE BOOKS!!! I AM SERIOUSLY UR BIGGEST FAN (not in a creepy way), I CANNOT W8 TILL VANISHED COMES OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! btw does anyone think that Ivy kidnapped Noelle? because, point # one: in the beginning of the book Ivy mentioned her other friends (i 4get what school they r from...), that like to "tear it up"? #2: how could she just get over reed and josh that fast?! #3: kate explained Ivy as she walked up the steps, like something in a horror movie #4: Ivy didnt bring anything to the sleepover/ whatever it is -- like a pillow or a blanket or anything... which means that she wasnt planning on staying... #5 when the lights came back on Ivy was away from the group, not holding onto anyone else so it looks like she wasnt scared OR she was helping them. does anyone think the same?

Posted by kaylav on August 22, 2010 at 09:45 PM EDT #

@kaylav i dont know about ivy i think itd be too ovious and kate doesnt let the ovious one in the story be the villian. but i do see your point. it could have something to do with ivy but my bets are still on the alum or mabe missy n those girls. and you know when reed said its werd that missys related to the lady who tried to kill her… mabe somehow mrs ryan has something to do with this! but its a little far fetched since shes in jail right now. idk well just have to wait and find out :-p

Posted by jenna on August 22, 2010 at 10:24 PM EDT #

ummm im new to the blog but ive been coming to th site 4 lk eva. Any wys why arent they making anymore web series they wer sooooooo goood. Plus the guy who plaed thomas was hooooot. Does anyone know where i can get vanished i cant find it @ any of my ocal stores and i sooo dont do online shopping.

Posted by Miracle on August 23, 2010 at 10:43 AM EDT #

i think kate is goona make it look like someone took noelle, but then its going to be someone completely different then were going to even expect it!

Posted by Cecelia on August 23, 2010 at 02:03 PM EDT #

@brittany read the facts, im not interested in any "links". i have patience, i don't mind waiting for the books. if you actually read what i wrote, i was asking about the WEBSERIES. so therefore, not contributing to links.

Posted by desperate on August 23, 2010 at 03:01 PM EDT #

THE WEB SHOW SUUUUCKKKKS IT IS NOTHING LIKE THE BOOKS NO ONE LOOKS LIKE THEIR CHARACTERS AND PRETTY SURE TAYLORS OLD ROOMMATE DOES NOT DIE THANKS AND REED GETS INVITED TO BILLINGS LATER NOT JUST GETS PLACED THERE AND WHAT HAPPENED TO CONSTANCE??? THIS IS HORRIBLE READ THE FREAKING BOOK BEFORE YOU MAKE A SHOW ABOUT THEM. JEEZ.

Posted by Constance on August 23, 2010 at 07:56 PM EDT #

is anyone getting Vanished early?

Posted by Rebecca on August 23, 2010 at 08:16 PM EDT #

speaking of spoiling, can you guys do me a favor ? like if someone gets the book early, can you not post spoilers on here? and if someone wants spoilers can you just like e-mail them or something like what Rebecca did the false waterstones link? it would be greatly appreciated cause I don't want it to be spoiled I know you can post whatever you want, but can you like refrain from doing that please:)

Posted by audrey on August 23, 2010 at 08:29 PM EDT #

THE PRIVATE WEBSERIES DVD THING IS BEING RELEASED TOMORROW FOR THOSE WHO KEEPING ASKING :)!

Posted by kim on August 23, 2010 at 09:51 PM EDT #

i got vanished yesterday :) the first three quarters or so were really good, but i found the revelation on who kidnapped noelle sort of unrealistic. but before vanished i wasnt really excited about the book of spells and now i am (:

Posted by Hannah on August 24, 2010 at 09:24 AM EDT #

Hannah does the story relate in any way to those links on waterstones?

Posted by Rebecca on August 24, 2010 at 01:44 PM EDT #

i just noticed that the gut who plays thomas is on pretty little liars

Posted by Miracle on August 24, 2010 at 02:24 PM EDT #

@desperate.....sorry thought you meant links. Everyone kept asking. They are inaccurate. Yeah, Kim is right. The webseries are out today. The webseries isn't great in my opinion, but yeah. @audrey, yeah. I wouldn't want spoilers to come out so early....@Hannah, i'm going to check my local bookstore to see if they have the book which i doubt.

Posted by Brittany on August 24, 2010 at 02:46 PM EDT #

@hannah is the book good? thats all i wanna know like better than scandal? and thanks for not spoiling it :)

Posted by audrey on August 24, 2010 at 03:57 PM EDT #

OMG! i cant wait for this book to come out im sooo exited!omigod its going to be so cool!

Posted by andrea on August 26, 2010 at 03:16 PM EDT #
