The Spill Magazine reviewer highlighted the contrast between the energy and positive tone of the music and the themes of nostalgia and loss in the lyrics. [1] Thefirenote's reviewer wrote: "By maintaining a strong musical flow through the album, Crane takes advantage of his multiple collaborators' talents while delving into deep emotions of loss and grief without becoming maudlin and despairing, and marking it as a strong, personal statement."

Many of the stories told on this album were adapted from memories that didn't make her autobiography or her observations of social struggles by which she felt particularly moved.
