The album was written in under two weeks.[3] Music Existence called it "a tightly produced, unapologetically fun record" which "provides a genuine, unpretentious look into the emotional volatility of youth."[4] The Soundboard Reviews called Young Beauties and Fools "an album that’s perfectly listenable and, for the most part, likable, but would be an absolute nightmare to dissect in depth, simply because there’s so little there."[5] The Spill Magazine praised the album as "relatable and catchy", "an easy listen with a whole lot of heart."[6]

At the Juno Awards of 2018, Young Beauties and Fools won the Juno Award for Rock Album of the Year.[7]
