How would you phrase this please?

Is this natural?

XXX being a person
He looks like XXX (from) the way he's playing. He's taken a chapter out of XXX's book.

Thank you

These both make sense, but aren't quite natural. The first one could definitely work in some contexts. "

The first one could definitely work in some contexts.

The second one, however, is more commonly phrased as:
"He's taken a leaf out of ***'s book."
