Enlightening and Thought-Provoking
6 Feb 2004
Format:Paperback
I got this book from a friend of mine who is a Lakers fan and told her I wasn't interested. I've done some work with women's outreach organizations though and she told me I would like it. I guess what interested me in this book was the information it offered into the woman who was attacked and the way she's been treated by people. In many ways it's a sad sort of book and you can sense that the people who wrote it felt some sympathy. I skipped over most of the stuff about Kobe Bryant's history because it's not really my cup of tea, but I found one of the later chapters about Kobe's defense team really, really interesting. It explains their methods and their plan to destroy the girl's credibility in court. For the most part, I was pleasantly surprised and found some of the legal issues extremely interesting.

Shocking but not completely unexpected I guess.
6 Feb 2004
Format:Paperback
I had my own ideas about who did what to who before reading this book. Now I'm completely confused. This book shows you Kobe's point of view and shows you the girls point of view (they call her "Lilly" in the book) and while it has a lot of damaging information about Kobe it also has some pretty crazy stuff about the girl. This will not be an easy case for a jury but the book is really exciting and the ending is crazy! Now I don't know who to believe!

Hard to find -- but worth the read.
5 Mar 2005
Format:Paperback
Jennifer Stevens and Jeffrey Scott Shapiro's summary of the Kobe Bryant drama will most likely be immortalized since the case has been settled and all parties -- including Bryant, the victim and their lawyers are bound to silence. Stevens and Shapiro covered the case up until February of 2004, but very little happened afterwards, leaving the reader with all the pertinent information, including what happened the night of the alleged attack and the police interviews with Kobe. It's a fast turning read, but good luck trying to find a copy in an actual bookstore. Either they're all sold out or maybe there was a recall for a new edition or something. It's pretty hard to locate a copy now. I remember seeing them in Borders when the book first came out, but ended up borrowing a copy from a friend after I had a hard time relocating the book offline. This book reads easily, but almost all of the authors bombshells including the police interview and 3 other women Kobe had strange encounters with has been verified by other sources. It's a fun read and unfortunately it's all there is since no one else has written another book on the case. I'm glad there was at least one book out there that covers all the main points and stories. I'd definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in a broad overview of the case and an inside look at who the main players are.
