Lisa Oliver's review: "On the whole it's a matter of there being nothing not to like. Eleven faultlessly produced harmless songs tailor-made for episodes of Dawson's Creek."

Review: "I highly recommend checking out her CD. Branch is very talented and introspective, and it shows through her music."

Liana Jonas' review: "what truly shines through are the young musician's lyrics. She handles much of the songwriting, which are some of the most open, simple, and idealistic ruminations on love to drop in 2001."

Nigel M.'s review: "Michelle's style is a little bit like Meredith Brooks but with more power-pop influence."

Bob Waliszewski's review: "She plays guitar, writes her own songs and belts out playful, yet assertive vocals that have her peers lip-synching into hairbrushes. Fun hooks. Innocuous messages."

Stephen Rauch's review: "while Michelle Branch may not reach into the realm of pop transcendence, she's made a great cd to listen to while driving, or playing computer solitaire".

Review: "by no means a masterpiece, but it's good pop-rock music."

Alasdair Stuart's review: "She's expressive without being showy, intelligent without being cold and passionate without being Whitney Houston. Much the same as the album itself, in fact. Highly recommended."

Katie E.'s review: "She is an incredibly talented individual and I think her songwriting talents will only get better as she matures and has more life experience."
