There's nothing wroing with reciprocal links per se. They occur organically and if you're in a niche it's difficult to avoid them.

The key is incoming links from pages with related content, preferably with anchor text related to the content of your page. I have never seen any evidence that whether those links are one-way or reciprocal really is at all important.

The only exception might be if ALL your incoming links were reciprocal. Depending on your niche, that might raise a flag about what Google calls "artifical linking practices".
