I’m completely wow'd by this app. When I first heard about it, I wanted to scream from the rooftops because Poughkeepsie is one of my all-time favorite books. I wondered what it’d be like, and if it would really make the story itself that much better, or if it’s just cute fluff to add onto the storyline. It is absolutely NOT just extra fluff. You can read Poughkeepsie a million times, but reading it within this app is a different experience altogether.
Poughkeepsie is so great with the details, but to read it with this app, it’s just so much more. You feel more emotion, you experience more of their lives, it’s just…more. More more more. There are so many extra tidbits that you’ll wonder how you read it the first time without them.
The biggest part for me that I loved was the music. Ron Pope and Poughkeepsie fit perfectly together, and the songs chosen for certain chapters just seem to be made for this book. You can listen to a Ron Pope song or read Poughkeepsie by itself, and love them both (I do anyway!). But to listen to a specific song while reading Livia and Blake’s story took everything to another level. You might think you felt something in a certain chapter before. Read it again in the app, you’ll see. It’s just…whoa. All of the music involved was a great addition to the story.
It does have A LOT of fun features. There are extras thrown in all over the place. There are chapters that sort of fit within a chapter. Interviews, games, recipes, videos, and stories from Debra Anastasia herself about the book. She also includes little highlighted areas that pop up and you can read little tidbits on certain quotes, etc all throughout Even if you aren’t necessarily in the mood to read Poughkeepsie, the app has so many features and it’s fun just to play with it all.
Overall, I think Debra Anastasia has sort of ruined me for any other book I may read. I need all of my favorites to have an app just like this. It’s completely amazing and so much fun. I sat there sort of in awe the first time I opened it. I quickly got sucked in and couldn’t get enough. It will change your experience with Poughkeepsie in the best way possible. If you loved it as much as I did before, you’ll be amazed how much more you can adore this book with the extras.
