Reviews3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Every song is a frippery-free guitar-bass-drums concoction graced with mournful melodies, and Mann's Raymond Carver-esque detailing...", 4 Stars Out of 5-"A Nuanced Collection of Mid-Tempo '70s-Pop-Referencing Tunes...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Mann is as literate as ever, a lyricist who takes great joy in language....Acoustic guitars, primitive organs and synths dominate the music, most effectively on 'Great Beyond' and 'Columbus Avenue'...", "The album draws attention to her lost-soul narratives....Her yarns prove just as lovely as they are doleful.", Ranked #43 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2008" -- "An eerily melancholy set of cautionary fairy tales...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "The quality levels remain uniformly high....Mann's voice is as appealing as warm honey, her songs smart and pithy."
