Making Out #15: Who Loves Kate?

by Katherine Applegate

Book Overview

They've all grown up together on a tiny island. They think they know everything about one another...but they're only just beginning to find out the truth. Who loves Kate? She may never find out--unless the guy in question can summon up the courage to tell her. But with Kate still thinking about a boy she may never see again, and with nearly all the island couples breaking up, it looks as if Kate's dream romance may remain a dream forever.

Customer Reviews

who loves kate?

I have read almost the whole series an dhave found the books both interesting and real. I especially liked the way Nina and her abuse situation was handled. This book was slightly dissapointing but I can assure you the series does get better. Nina needs to stop being such a pushover and ben a jerk which does happen. Being a teen my self I have found the series to be very real and acurate. I was dissapointed when the series ended and wish katherine would right some more. I encourage anyone to read from the beginning as it is a very good series.

Finally! A book that sounds like it's about REAL teenagers!

This book was really great, I can't wait 'til the next one comes out. That thing about Nina at the end especially has me on a cliff. My only gribes?What the *** is wrong with certain male charecters(hint: Benjimin & Jake)? Ben is acting like a complete jerk, and Jake is well...clueless to put it mildly. And why can't Lara give up on Jake? Is he really that great a catch? And am I the only one that wants to reach out and slap Zoey every time the "sex" talk with or about Lucas comes up? I mean, do we really want to hear about it five times a book? I don't think so. It's nice she has standards and conviction, but it's kinda being taken to a sickening and annoyingly old point.The book really did rock though. The plots are like a soap opera, so when life sucks, you can sit down and read it and think"I guess I don't have it that bad". It's a great read for study hall or a long trip. My advice to the author: KEEP 'UM COMING!!!

I'm helplessly hooked too.

This book was great.. another awesome addition to this series. The cliffhangers are deadly, but that's what helps make them so cool. On the cover of this book, shouldn't it be Kate? Even though its called "Who Loves Kate?", the girl on the front (and back) have black hair and look nothing like Kate on "Don't Tell Zoey". Who is this? and if it's not Kate, then why is she on there?

Wonderful

Another wonderful addition to this very popular series. I am completely hooked as well. I read this series before it was titled making out, back when the cover had grafiti spray-paint on it. only one problem, it stopped at 8, "Aisha Goes Wild". you all know how that ends. Well, that was the last book. how infuriating, I was happily surprised, while during my recent scouring of the teen section of my local bookstore, when i thumbed across number 9. I was exstatic. It obviously didnt stop there, I only have one thing to say, keep writing, and dont leave us hanging again!

I am HOOKED to this series!

In this book, the teens go to Miami for spring break. (Zoey's idea, of course.) By the end of the book....Lara is still chasing after Jake, even though he is trying to escape her (btw, she slept with Tad Crowley); Lucas and (the sunburnt) Zoey have some little fight about Kate (as always); Kate is having fun; Aisha is spending the night with Christopher (he's back in the series for the moment....); Claire is trying to split up her parents, and escape Aaron, who followed them to Miami; and Nina is in her room crying because Benjamin is being a dumb***. He used to be my favorite character, but now he's acting so mean to everyone. I still like Nina, but I feel so sorry for her. As for Aaron and Claire, I think they will end up together. I honestly don't really think that Claire's plan to split up her & Aaron's parents won't work. Now....someone e-mail me and tell me how I can get "Lara Gets Even", "Two-Timing Aisha", and "Zoey Speaks Out" AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!!
