Ivanka Trump may write a book about her work with her father’s presidential administration, Page Six reports.
If the book materializes, it would be the third from Trump, the eldest daughter of President Donald Trump, who works as an advisor to her father.
“Ivanka has been known to correct friends who mistakenly thought she worked only in the East Wing,” an unnamed source told the website. “She wants to set the record straight on a long list of issues, including confronting her critics head-on.”
The source said the book would address what Ivanka Trump insists are misconceptions about her, including that she is “out of her depth” working in the White House and that her relationship with her father’s wife, Melania Trump, is strained. It would also seek to settle scores with the “liberal media” and with New York Attorney General Letitia James, who is reported to be investigating President Trump and his businesses.
Ivanka Trump has written two previous books: The Trump Card: Playing to Win in Work and Life and Women Who Work: Rewriting the Rules for Success. A reviewer for Kirkus called the latter book “nearly useless” and “vapid.”
Ivanka Trump isn’t the only member of her family who political observers have speculated might seek to get a book deal. Many in the publishing industry think President Trump is interested in writing another book, and first lady Melania Trump is reportedly considering writing a coffee-table book related to the White House.
