Critical reception
The album was generally well received in the Canadian indie music scene.[2][6] Kerry Doole of Exclaim! noted that the album showcases Mangan's "highly promising talent"[2] and that "Mangan's career progress will merit watching."[2] In a review of a later Mangan album, Oh Fortune, Julian Uzielli of mitZine said, "Postcards and Daydreaming (2007), showed obvious potential, despite the fairly generic acoustic-folk sound."[7]
The musical style of the album has been described as "sombre and melancholy"[2] and "a good sulky-day companion".[6]
