"In the Land of Believers: An Outsider's Extraordinary Journey into the Heart of the Evangelical Church" by Gina Welch is about a woman going undercover into that whole world. Not sure if they're quite as fundie as the Duggars, but similar.
"Pure: Inside the Evangelical Movement That Shamed a Generation of Young Women and How I Broke Free" by Linda Kay Klein came out recently, about the damaging effect the whole "no sex until marriage" purity culture has had on people.
Someone else mentioned this already, but "The Unlikely Disciple: A Sinner's Semester at America's Holiest University" by Kevin Roose is one of the most fascinating nonfiction books I've ever read. The differences between a secular college experience and a Christian one are shocking. Highly recommend!
In that same vein, "God's Harvard: A Christian College on a Mission to Save America" by Hanna Rosin is about an Evangelical Christian college that I imagine is somewhat similar to Crown College, the joke of a college some of the Duggar kids seem to have attended a bit before dropping out (I think Joe for a semester or two?)
Someone said "Papa Pilgrim" -- I think they mean "Pilgrim's Wilderness: A True Story of Faith and Madness on the Alaska Frontier" by Tom Kizzia, about a fundie man who takes his large family to live in the Alaskan wilderness.
