"Ed Harcourt har produceret og får alle de fine små lag med, som på Electric og den foruroligende Battleships, hvor det nænsomme akustiske fingerspil smyger sig om Williams' dejlige nærværende vokalfrasering. Den tunge Mirrors skiller sig markant ud fra resten af albummet, hvor den samplede lydbund og de fræsende guitarstikinger skaber et markant opbrud. Noget, der godt kunne have været lidt mere af. Bortset fra det formår Kathryn Williams at spinne sine sange med små virkemidler og samtidig forføre en som lytter".

"One of the UK's primary folk-pop songwriters records a concept album inspired by Sylvia Plath's only published novel, The Bell Jar ... Hypoxia (the medical term for lack of oxygen supply to the body, and perhaps a reference to Plath's suicide) reflects the novel's muscular writing style; songs such as Mirrors, Beating Heart, Cuckoo, and The Mind has its own Place draw on scenes and storylines from the book, and Williams's combination of melancholy and melody is bang on".
