"Life by Misadventure" has been given a Metacritic score of 62 based on eight reviews, indicating "generally  favorable reviews". In a positive review, "Clash"'s Josh Abraham noted that the "production is driven by a Motown style". However, it is not "afraid to get deep with a ballad or two". Kate Brayden at "Hot Press" opined that "Graham felt the need to maintain a safety net for the work, which has little experimentation" but still complimented his "unmatched vintage-meets-modern vocal talent". Narzra Ahmed of "Line of Best Fit" concluded that while "the first half of the album holds itself together so well", "the second half passes with little to no note". According to El Hunt  at "NME", "an artist obsessed with the idea of authenticity" is a trap Graham fell right into with the album. Track listing.
