When Marian Halcombe was invited into the Patriarchal homes of Texas, she knew it would be an experience. The people were very nice, very kind. But surely their lives were too "perfect"? This is the story of how Marian learnt the dark truth behind the fake smiles of Patriarchal daughters, helped one to run away from home and tried to bring her back into the real world. "Fake Someone Happy" shows what happens if we abandon the Word of God for the laws of men. It demolishes the idols of courtship, homeschooling and Patriarchy. It is a true story.
