Poughkeepsie by Debra Anastasia has been a cult hit bestseller
since 2011. A homeless guy counting the smiles of a kind train commuter
spiraled into a novel that was nominated by the Rockstars of Romance as one of
the most romantic stories ever and won 2nd place! It was a story that deserved getting a jumbo-sized
enhancement. Extra scenes out the ying yang was, of course, a huge part of the
fun. Getting to spend some of those previously undiscovered first moments with
Blake and Livia or the moment he proposed was worth exploring. In Debra’s
wildest dreams she imagined Poughkeepsie with its own soundtrack, anchored by
her favorite musicians. When blockbuster talent Ron Pope signed on with
fourteen songs and then Rustic Overtones agreed as well, she knew things were
going to get crazy cool.
After almost two full years of development, the Enhanced
Poughkeepsie is ready. Debra lost
count of the hours spent, as did the developer poured into this. It was beast,
and more amazing than she could have ever imagined. This app became the most
exceptional reading experience Debra could devise for her readers.

My Review or I guess My Experience...
Poughkeepsie is one of my all time favorite books then Debra Anastasia says 'hey can I make this even more awesome?' Then what does she do???? but turns Poughkeepsie into and interactive Enhanced App. When I find this out I was all 'get the eff out!' then I was all 'where can I get me that app?' then the awesomeness of Debra gives us the opportunity to be part of this app tour and we get to experience the beauty that is Poughkeepsie in a more 3 dimensional experience.
With this enhanced app we get to use all our senses with music from Ron Pope as well as visuals that help solidify the experience. This app had the book coming to life with trailers, songs, quizzes, sounds, thoughts, pictures the only sense it didn't cover was smell. It was like being able to read Poughkeepsie with Debra right beside you. You got to get into her brain with her side notes and we get the extra bonuses of scenes that help enhance the book even more.
There is something so friggin' beautiful about Blake that he just swells my heart.
It's how he is so beautiful inside and out. It's also in how he sees the world and all the beauty in it.
With this app we get to experience more of the brothers and how strong their loyalty and relationships are.

One of the harder scenes to read in the normal book was hard enough but now add the music and pictures and it makes Mouse's last appearance near inconsolable.
There are so many different aspects of this book that feeds your mind and heart. If you loved Poughkeepsie than this is a must. If you have never read this series than this or the just the plain ol' book is a definite must. Debra Anastasia has brought this book to life and I loved the experience.
The two things I wish were different were to have ALL the songs embedded within the app instead of only some of them and at times it was hard for me to get to the next chapter with the swipe but all in all those are very small complaints and in the end I loved the total experience.
For the whole experience 5 Loving Thumbs up!

Thank you so much Lauren!
