Unless you‘re a Kobe Bryant Uber fan or you LIVE & BREATHE all things basketball this book might be too intense in its origin story. It‘s literally THE RISE of Kobe Bryant from infancy through High School. It heavily focuses on his 4 years playing basketball for Lower Merion HS, just 3 miles down the street from where I lived. Kobe will forever be the #HomeTownHero but I was looking for a book more on Kobe the man, dad, husband. 👇🏽

Cinfhen Audio contains chilling home tapes recorded when he & Kobe were still in HS. Kobe was driven at such an early age. He was laser focused on playing professional basketball but his determination doesn‘t always come across as exemplary ( IMO). This book ends after his first season as an LA Laker. I loved all the hometown nostalgia but the book was a bit of a slough. 2y

DivineDiana I hope you enjoy the book! #KobeRIP Speaking of basketball and the Main Line, did you hear Jay Wright, longtime men‘s basketball coach of Villanova retired a few days ago? Mainliners are in shock! 🏀 (edited) 2y
Cinfhen I don‘t follow Villanova basketball but I‘m sure it was a shock @DivineDiana !! How old is Coach Wright?? 2y
DivineDiana Coach Wright is a very young 60. 🙂 2y
Cinfhen 60 is young @Divinemst and of course Jay Wright was mentioned in this book!! It‘s VERY MUCH a love letter to the Mainline!!! They even mention the Narberth Acme 😁 2y

Yeah. He knows. 😂 If you‘ve read the tagged book you get why this is funny.

Found a super funny reel on IG where he talks about how he‘s so old he no longer remembers the first rule of Fight Club. 🤣

"The Bassoon King" by Rainn Wilson funny and fascinating, and I'm only on chapter three. It is the book I wish I'd written. Also, he narrates his own audiobook, which is as close to perfection as one could hope. #basoonking #Dwight #RainnWilson #memoirs #humor #hometownhero
