AllMusic4/5 stars[3]

AllMusic's writer Mariano Prunes said about her music that "she partially switches her attention from her adoptive homeland to the sounds she heard while growing up in Chile", also noticing Laferte "is more interested in offering something for everyone than heading in a completely new direction, as the album smartly mixes North Andean rhythms, vals peruano, cumbia, and a Los Saicos cover (a highly influential Peruvian band from the '60s), with bolero, ska, ranchera, pop, and ballads", and considered Laferte "a powerhouse melodramatic singer able to emote without sounding strident".[3]
