"True Gretch is filled with wonderful stories detailing an important public servant's commitment to doing what is right for the people. This book is both a road map for how to get things done and a source of inspiration for engaged citizens in our democracy. It is also funny, bringing much-needed joy to the reader during a time of great solemnity."

—HAKEEM JEFFRIES, MINORITY LEADER OF THE U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

"As someone who has long been committed to non-blurbing, this wonderful and, yes, exquisitely wacky how-to-be-a-shark-MF guide by That Woman from Michigan is a must-read for badass ladies everywhere and for anyone who aspires to be one. I laughed, I cried, and now, god help me, I am a happy half-Whit. (Also, sorry, Big Gretch, but my UMich son requires it: Go Blue!)"

—KARA SWISHER, NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BURN BOOK

"Getting to know Gretchen through this book was exhilarating. She uses humor as her superpower to tackle challenges that would knock out most. I am just amazed and inspired by her wit and grace. G, you really are a Wonder Woman!"

—LYNDA CARTER, ACTOR AND SINGER-SONGWRITER

"Whether it's confronting the patriarchy, domestic terrorist threats, or the perils of orthodontia, Governor Whitmer does so with grace, candor, and a big dose of humor. That Woman from Michigan doesn't suffer fools, nor does she partake in mythmaking. Vulnerable, with a side of gallows humor, True Gretch reads like you've got a seat at the table with the governor and you just agreed to buy another round of Oberon. It left me energized and, as a writer myself, a bit jealous. A lifetime of Midwest wit and wisdom put into a compact book you could finish on a road trip from Kalamazoo to Muskegon, or Lansing to D.C.... just spitballing."
