4.0 out of 5 stars lovely, wish it were available in the US, March 2, 2008

I always feel sort of insulted when American artists are available only as imports in the US. Since I didn't want to spend $30 on the import, I bought it from iTunes. But it is a lovely album. If you liked Stephanie's first album (Ghosts, Mice, and Vagabonds) you'll probably like this too. Her voice is warm and expressive, a perfect match for her songs. The production here is thoughtful and serves the songs well. Favorites off the album include "This Joy," "Owl in the Dark," and "A Lily for the Spectre." "A Lily for the Spectre" is a surprisingly dark and beautiful song, unlike any others I've heard from her.

While Stephanie's lyrics are often very good, some of them can be jarringly blunt, and some people will find this a bit too flowery overall. But this album, along with her first one, have a way of being very comforting when listened to alone. I look forward to more music from Stephanie and I hope it's eventually sold in America.

Yes, I've been a fan since "Ghosts, Mice and Vagabonds" and I am happy to say that the second album does not disappoint at all. I LOVE the title song, and really admire how her voice weaves something magical. Owl in the dark is also one of my faves for it's lovely strings. Stephanie just continues to astonish me with her growth. By the way, you can check out videos on her myspace page.
Her voice is lovely and her songwriting only makes me wish I could get into her head to see what she sees. It sounds like gorgeous scenery. All I need now is the next album!
