Reception
Andrew Leahey of Allmusic gave the album a rating of three-and-a-half stars out of a possible five, and wrote that it "plays up the show's creative side". He cited "I Feel Pretty / Unpretty" as being "one of the show’s prettiest tributes to self-acceptance", and also commends the Chenoweth and Matthew Morrison cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams". Leahey noted that "the second half of the album doesn’t fare as well as the first", but added that the album was better "than some of its predecessors".
