"Somehow, some way, this record, unlike Courtney Love's persona for the last decade, isn't a cringe-inducing disaster." - nowtoronto.com

"Heartbreakingly banal... Despite its few fleeting moments of honesty, 'Nobody's Daughter' ultimately feels like a badly missed opportunity." - pitchfork.com

"It's impossible to disguise the turgid tuneless folk-rock swirl... By swapping guitar armies and clobbering hooks for muddled midtempo ballads, Courtney is placing more weight on her lyrics than she perhaps should.' - allmusic.com

"Love still undoubtedly has many songs left in her that are waiting to be recorded; she just needs to learn that it's time to move on from the past." - popmatters.com
