Peace & Love remains something of a mood piece--it’s ruminative, not rousing, never succumbing to navel-gazing but not suited for large crowds--which does mean it doesn’t quite have the undeniable power of How to Walk Away, but when a softly melancholy mood strikes, this provides comforting consolation.

MojoPeace & Love continues this new mature streak with her most musically stripped down but lyrically most strident and complex collection yet. [Feb 2010, p. 102]
-
The songstress revisits some familiar themes in her deceptively straightforward compositions, underscoring mournful realizations with bonhomie.
-

If the album would benefit from more variety in its tempo and range, Peace & Love is, at the very least, a successful mood piece that proves how well maturity suits Hatfield.

Here, awash in bedroom multitracking, she's more diffuse.
-
So, the album is uncool, there’s that, and still too ‘90s to be anything different than what came before, anything less than dated.
