Stranger Me was met with "generally favorable" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 78 based on 9 reviews. At AnyDecentMusic?, the release was given a 7.2 out of 10 based on a critical consensus of 7 reviews. In a review for AllMusic, critic reviewer Hal Horowitz wrote "Stranger Me is not only a logical title but a demanding and surprisingly successful experiment that challenges both LaVere and the listener, pushing her into edgy, clearly non-commercial areas." Steve Pick of Blurt wrote "LaVere's vocals are deceptively lightweight. Her voice is high and thin, but she phrases eloquently and conveys a wide range of emotional conviction throughout all her work." At Paste, Stephen Deusner said LaVere's release is a "well-rounded album." Track listing
