Kirkus called her 2015 nonfiction work discussing the history of jewelry, Stoned, "a lively, incisive cultural and social history".[2]
The Wall Street Journal described her appearance on the 2022 documentary Nothing Lasts Forever as "comically caustic".[6] Decider called her appearance "an extremely witty breath of fresh air" and said that her "go-for-broke, take-no-prisoners disdain for bullshit is inspiring".[7] Variety called her appearance "endlessly quotable".[8] Indiewire called her the documentary's standout and a "natural scene stealer", saying she "radiates charisma with dramatic turns of phrase and a highly attuned bullshit meter".[9]
