There are many books like this that aren't even fiction. Most notably the one I've linked to below.

I am part of a whole group of people who are living what eddie is experiencing with his family.There's a subreddit for people like us. It's called r/exmormon.

The mormons are more normal in some ways and more strange in others when you compare them to meyerists. But watching this show and how eddie's departure has impacted the family dynamics is absolutely chilling with how similar it is.

When eddie asked "you don't really believe that" and sarah said "you don't even know me" or something I had such a physical reaction. because I know someone whose ex-wife said the exact same thing to him when he decided he was leaving the mormon church.

Edited to Add: one of the best books I've ever read on the FLDS cult.

I've read so many books about the FLDS. This was one of the first I read and loved it. I was gifted this book last week and I can't wait to get started! If you need any FLDS recommendations, let me know!

I recently read a book by Sanjiv Battacharya called "Secrets and Wives: The Hidden World of Mormon Polygamy." In it, he has a chapter all about Namelka and his claims along with several interviews he did with the author. He is an absolutely fascinating and delusional human being.

By the way, the book is written from such an interesting perspective; an atheist's point of view who is trying to figure out what Polygamy and fundamentalism is all about. Worth a read!
