NathanMMar 25, 20109An excellent follow-up to Volume One. While Volume One allowed listeners to fall in love (or not) with Zooey, Volume Two, as Zooey comes into her own, allows listeners to fall in love with the instrumentation provided by M. Ward.

DavidSMar 26, 20109As good, if not better than Vol, 1... Reviews claiming it breaks no new ground, or is too similar in tenor to the first are just flat out lazy... Hello! It's Vol. 2.

Rather than being something different or a step in a new direction, it's merely a continuation of the same thing as last time. [Winter 2010, p.65]

The smiling-through-tears undercurrent of ’60s pop is lost in Deschanel’s taffy-like vocals, and though the album evokes memories of a more pleasant time, they seem far too sweet to be real.

Though Ward is a master instrumentalist, Deschanel's vocal affects and childlike rhymes sometimes veer into twee overload; she can seem too in love with her own adorability. But by a cappella closer ''If You Can't Sleep,'' it's hard to begrudge this Volume's magpie charms.
