"Made for uncertain times, Optimism is funny, clever and elegant, but it's not a record that seeks approval or constructs a tidy narrative. It ends with the near a cappella "When I Go Down Into That Night", Horn venturing deeper into delicious abstraction. "When I go down into that night, and there's no hope in the plan, and I can barely see my feet, will you meet me where I stand?" she asks. The ground that she walks on is treacherous, maybe even non-existent, but Optimism plots an intriguing course away from the everyday. Tread carefully and follow".

"With the boiled-down quality of a good short story collection, the debut album from the Texas songwriter is cryptic, bewildering, and daringly simple".

"Jana Horn is a mystery, and Optimism is something of a mirage. While it is the album she intended to make, it's not what she made initially. The original album sounded too good. That isn't what she wanted because it didn't reflect her or her upbringing ... The thing she does most clearly (...) is to create the aural equivalent of what a novelist writes, exposing the flaws and the heartbreak that reside in each of us. For Jana Horn, Optimism may be the answer, but there are going to be a lot of mysteries along the way; such is the stuff of life".
