Why I Hate Green Beans

And Other Confessions About Relationships, Reality TV, and How We See Ourselves

By: Lincee Ray

Narrated by: Lincee Ray

If there is one thing Lincee Ray has learned over the years, it's that the majority of women on the planet struggle with insecurities. Our skinny jeans mock us. Our just-trying-to-help mothers are just driving us crazy. Our social media feeds taunt us with everyone else's picture-perfect lives. It's enough to send you on a gummy-bear bender while binge-watching Friends reruns and not showering for a week. Lincee knows. She's been there. Right there, in fact. Gummy bears and all.

For every woman who's ever wondered if she's unlovable, uninteresting, or unattractive, Lincee offers her particular brand of hilarious (and hard-hitting) self-reflection. Like a true friend, she shows us that the fastest way to happiness is to embrace ourselves in all our imperfection, trust that God knew what he was doing when he made us, and maybe go buy a new tube of mascara.

Walk alongside Lincee as she discovers that her identity is not found in her job, her relationship status, her bank account, or her social circle. It's found in Christ.

Best book I’ve Read in Awhile

Lincee is hilarious and endearing. Any book that can make me laugh and cry is a winner.

Perfect in every way!

Lincee is the best friend we all pray for! She is real and hilarious! I laughed and cried at the same time and nodded my head countless times. I can’t give up my allegiance to Joey McIntyre for Jordan Knight but I will never read Psalm 139 the same again! Thank you for sharing your story, I don’t think you are even a little bit crazy!

A MUST Read Book!!

This book is a MUST read!! Lincee makes you laugh with her wit and sarcasm while making you think about life and for appreciating people within your life. She is an excellent communicator and she shows true authenticity. Thank you Lincee for sharing your heart and for connecting with the reader!!

So Poignant, funny, and real

I really enjoyed this book. Lincee had this way of bearing her soul that just spoke to me. I appreciated her keeping it real. I would recommend this book, because if you wanna hear a quirky, awesome life story. This is it!

Loved it!

Such a fun listen! It was honest, funny, and meaningful. Brought back some fun 80s memories too! I loved it!

Fellow Green Bean Hater

The chapter on the longing for motherhood had me in tears. The chapter following about her interactions with her friends kids had me crying from laughter. I loved hearing Lincee’s emotions come through as she narrated. I am very thankful she has told her story.

Great book!

I loved this book. Such heart and humility. She shared a beautiful story that is real life. Life doesn’t often turn out as we predict but we can chose to be joyful through it all. I want to go eat chips and queso with Lincee now!
