My Thoughts on I Wasn’t Born Lucky
"I Wasn’t Born Lucky" is a completed web novel with a mix of comedy, horror, and romance that certainly left me with a lot to think about. With its blend of supernatural elements and a calm, clever protagonist, it promised an intriguing ride. Did it deliver? Let's dive in.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the premise of a protagonist who befriends ghosts and solves mysteries with a seemingly detached curiosity. The early chapters had a unique charm, and I found myself enjoying the blend of humor and low-key horror. The idea of an OP MC casually navigating dangerous situations was appealing, and I was eager to see where the story would go.
What Works Well
Many readers, including myself, found the "unlimited flow" instances to be entertaining, at least in the beginning. Each world presented a unique mystery, and the MC's unconventional approach to problem-solving was often humorous. I appreciated how the story played with classic horror tropes, giving them a comedic twist. There's a certain charm in seeing the MC befriend ghosts and essentially troll them. Some readers also praised the translation quality, which always helps with immersion.
Areas of Concern
However, as I progressed, some issues began to surface. The MC, while initially intriguing, can come across as bland and emotionally stunted. His reactions often feel robotic, and it's difficult to connect with him on an emotional level. Some found the plot armor a bit too thick, where the MC's success felt more like luck than genuine skill.
The ML is a point of contention for many. Some found him creepy and stalker-ish, particularly in the early chapters with the dream sequences. While his possessiveness might appeal to some, others found it off-putting and unhealthy. I can see how his initial behavior could be a major turn-off for many readers.
The instances themselves can become repetitive and convoluted. The explanations sometimes lack logic, and the mysteries lose their sense of tension. It felt like the author piled on plot armor, making the instances less about genuine challenge and more about showcasing the MC's invincibility.

Final Verdict
Overall, "I Wasn’t Born Lucky" is a mixed bag. It has moments of genuine humor and intrigue, but it also suffers from a bland protagonist, a problematic ML, and repetitive plot structures. While some readers absolutely loved it, finding it a comedic and enjoyable read, others found it boring and forgettable. Ultimately, whether or not you enjoy this novel will depend on your tolerance for these issues and your appreciation for a protagonist who's more quirky than compelling. For me, it was an okay read, but not one I would necessarily rush to recommend.
