Critical Reception[]
Allmusic wrote that the album is one of "Yearwood's most entertaining albums, but one of her richest records, in both musical and emotional terms as well."
Billboard wrote: "Yearwood can pack more feeling into one line of a song than most artists can on an entire album, and the material on "Jasper County" gives her plenty of opportunity to work her magic."
Entertainment Weekly wrote that the album "beats her '90s efforts.... Yet any personality dissipates amid the average tunes" while The New York Times said that it "doesn't always play to her strengths."
