    An album that not only establishes Carpenter as a multifaceted singer, but also multidimensional superstar.

    Short n’ Sweet abounds with Sabrina Carpenter’s sly innuendo, a contrast to the cartoonish flair of Katy Perry. .... Swift’s Speak Now is a sister album to Short n’ Sweet.

    Espresso shot Carpenter into the spotlight, but Short n’ Sweet shows she is here for the long haul.

    If the sound of Short n’ Sweet is occasionally fuzzy, its sense of humor is diamond-sharp.

    A smart, funny, cheerfully merciless catalog of bad boyfriend behavior and the deceptions and rationalizations that enable it. Carpenter mostly smiles and winks her way through songs that recognize the irrational power of lust, but deftly twist the knife on cheaters and hypocrites.

    Occasionally you get the impression that she’s trying a bit too hard – Bed Chem attempts to make a filthy pun on the word ‘camaraderie’ that trips up over its own unwieldiness. However, there’s a lot to enjoy, even love, on Short N’ Sweet.

    ‘Espresso’/‘Please Please Please’ are each strong enough in their own respective ways to carry Sabrina to stardom and keep her there for years to come. It’s just a shame that the rest of this record couldn’t live up to those efforts, because anything worthwhile to be gleaned from this particular era of Sabrina Carpenter’s career has already been out and heard a hundred times over.
