The editorial staff at AllMusic Guide gave this album 3.5 out of five stars, with reviewer Thom Jurek noting Osborne's experimentation as a songwriter, creating a song cycle in the album and noting the diversity of musical genres, but criticizing that "some of these songs falter".[3] Kelly McCartney of PopMatters scored this release a seven out of 10, noting that these songs show Osborne's maturity as a singer and songwriter, summing up that Love and Hate is "particularly satisfying in that it delivers on—and extends—the promise made by her wonderful debut so many years ago".[1]
