She was certainly very pretty, with a vivid, irregular, bewitching type of prettiness. There was a gloss as of brown nuts on her satin-smooth hair and a soft, ripe glow on her round cheeks. Her eyes were big and brown and velvety, under oddly-pointed black brows, and her crooked mouth was rose-red.
Anne and Priscilla’s first impression of Phil Gordon, from Anne of the Island by L.M. Montgomery

Anne: And of course, Gilbert was there, looking at everyone with his ridiculous hazel eyes—
Priscilla Grant: Why is she talking about Gilbert?
Phil Gordon: I don’t know. I asked her about the weather and somehow we ended up here.

It is crazy that so many of L. M. Montgomery's girls have "inherited" Philippa Gordon's traits/plotline:
1. EMILY STARR
both cherish the people they eat with more than the food itself:
Phil Gordon:
“Better a dinner of herbs where your chums are than a stalled ox in a lonely boardinghouse.”
Anne of The Island by L. M. Montgomery
Emily Starr:
"Better a dinner of herbs where Cousin Jimmy is than roast spare-ribs and Aunt Ruth therewith," she said."
Emily Climbs by L. M. Montgomery
2. ILSE BURNLEY:
-both are popular with boys:
Phil Gordon:
"She had all the “beaux” that heart could desire, for nine-tenths of the Freshmen and a big fraction of all the other classes were rivals for her smiles."
Anne of the Island by L. M. Montgomery
Ilse Burnley:
"Nonsense," said Emily reassuringly. "Nine out of ten men will fall in love with you."
Emily Climbs by by L. M. Montgomery
"But Ilse, though she told many a tale of lovers forlorn whose agonies seemed to lie very lightly on her conscience, never mentioned Teddy's name."
Emily's Quest by L. M. Montgomery
-both like the boys who are in love with someone else:
Phil Gordon:
"But, of course, the one I like best I can’t get. Gilbert Blythe won’t take any notice of me, except to look at me as if I were a nice little kitten he’d like to pat. Too well I know the reason."
Anne of the Island by L. M. Montgomery
Ilse Burnley:
"There's never been anybody for me but Perry Miller. And you've got your claws in him."
Emily's Quest by L. M. Montgomery
-neither of them can hate a girl their crush likes:
Phil Gordon:
"I owe you a grudge, Queen Anne. I really ought to hate you and instead I love you madly, and I’m miserable if I don’t see you every day."
Anne of The Island by L. M. Montgomery
Ilse Burnley:
"Emily, I wonder I don't hate you. Rejecting with scorn what I want so much."
Emily's Quest by L. M. Montgomery
-both are willing to change their ways of life for the men they love:
Phil Gordon:
“You’ll have to give up a good many things you’ve always had, when you marry Mr. Blake, Phil.”
“But I’ll have him. I won’t miss the other things."
Anne of the Island by L. M. Montgomery
Ilse Burnley:
"I think you'll have to ask Perry sometimes if you can do things."
"I won't mind that. You'll be surprised to see what a dutiful wife I'll make."
Emily's Quest by L. M. Montgomery
3. RACHEL "RAE" (CUDDLES) GARDINER (Pat of Silver Bush)
-both have the same trouble (choosing which one of two man would be better and then):
Phil Gordon:
"Alec and Alonzo are two dear boys, and I like them both so much that I really don’t know which I like the better. That is the trouble."
Anne of The Island by L. M. Montgomery
Rae Gardiner:
"Of course I mean to make up my mind permanently some day. I feel sure I'll marry one of those boys. They are both good matches."
"And I'm not mercenary...I'm only through with being a sentimentalist. It's just that I find it hard to decide between two equally nice boys."
Mistress Pat by L. M. Montgomery
-both end up marrying "the third man":
Phil Gordon:
"Anne, I’m the happiest girl in the world,” confessed Phil suddenly.
“So Mr. Blake has asked you to marry him at last?” said Anne calmly.
“Yes. And I sneezed three times while he was asking me. Wasn’t that horrid? But I said ‘yes’ almost before he finished—I was so afraid he might change his mind and stop."
Anne of The Island by L. M. Montgomery
Rae Gardiner:
"Fancy any one not knowing who Brook Hamilton is. I can't believe I didn't know him myself three weeks ago. I met him the first night you went away at Dot's dance..."
"Rae Gardiner, you don't mean to tell me you're engaged to a man you've known only three weeks!"
Mistress Pat by L. M. Montgomery
-both end up marrying a rather ugly man:
Phil Gordon:
“He is a very ugly young man—really, the ugliest young man I’ve ever seen. He has a big, loose-jointed figure with absurdly long legs. His hair is tow-color and lank, his eyes are green, and his mouth is big, and his ears—but I never think about his ears if I can help it."
Anne of The Island by L. M. Montgomery
Rae Gardiner:
"I suppose," said Pat sarcastically, "he's extremely handsome and you've fallen for..."
"But he isn't. I think he's ugly really, when I think of his face at all. But it's such a delightful ugliness."
Mistress Pat by L. M. Montgomery

Phil Gordon: Girls, I’ve decided I'm going to let Jonas Blake kiss me tonight.
Anne: Philippa Gordon!
Phil Gordon: Well, if we're going to get married, I may as well start it.
Anne: Nice girls don't let men kiss them until after they're engaged. Men don't want the bloom rubbed off.
Phil Gordon: Personally, I think I have too much bloom. Maybe that's the trouble with me.

Moments in Kinks-related books that I can't stop thinking about, no matter if it's happy, horrible, or sad :
-Michael Aldred. It was really interesting to see Ray's perspective. It was funny to see how he mentioned the word "friendship" right after writing about how Michael listened to the walls at the Connaught Gardens house. And also, Dave's recollection of their breakup. (X-Ray and Kink).
-Staying on the Michael Aldred topic, the fact that he was already trying to hit on Dave the first time they met during Ready, Steady, Go!. And Dave jokingly(?) punching Pete because... I don't remember what Pete did (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Mitch Mitchell almost joining The Kinks after the Cardiff incident (X-Ray, Kink and Americana I think?).
-["Where the fuck did the Greenlaw come from ?"] (X-Ray, I need to find the page again)
-Ray comparing Pete leaving the band to a divorce. (X-Ray)
-The whole David Watts bit aka. Ray attempts to sell his brother's hand to a man in exchange for a mansion after finding out the guy was gay with Mick's help. Also Mick was dancing around while in birth day clothing (X-Ray and Kink. I'm pretty sure Ray Davies: A Complicated Life also mentioned it).
-The mention of Nobby's picture with the guitar and shovel after he went back to his day job due to Pete coming back in 1966 (X-Ray).
-Mick Avory and his connections with the drag queen community (X-Ray).
-Mitch Mitchell hiding pigeons under his bed (Kink).
-Dave explaining Ray's behaviour with astrology (Kink).
-Everyone (the bros, Mick and Nobby) getting scolded by Grenville, and then Baptist entering the room drunk, in full Viking gear, and blowing a horn. Then Grenville resigned (Kink and Americana).
-Ken Jones' death (Americana and Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Mick falling and hurting his back while in a clown costume (Kink and Americana).
-Mick, a model, and a DJ (X-Ray).
-Mick attracting all the drag queens even though he's "straight" (Ray's words, not mine) (X-Ray).
-The house Dave and Mick (and Michael Aldred !) lived in had to get exorcised after they all left (don't remember which one, X-Ray maybe ?— Actually I think it was Ray Davies: A Complicated Life. Not sure though).
-The "pineapple juice" bit (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Baptist eating a restaurant bill, and then Pamela (one of the backing singers during Preservation era) trying to do the same but not being allowed to (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-The Kinks almost having a punch-up after a concert because Bob asked for a pizza and the brothers "went apeshit" (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Jim getting to go to the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame ceremony, even though he wasn't inducted (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Chrissie Hynde being scared that her and Ray's house might be haunted, so Ray called Peggy who called Dave for assistance (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Nobby thinking him leaving the Kinks was fated (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-1984 being a bad year for basically everyone (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Gordon having to calm down Mick's murderous intents for half an hour after the latter had to be sent to the dressing room following a fight with Dave (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Baptist dropping college right before his finals just so he could join The Kinks (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Nobby sprinting, diving and swimming Baptist back to the shore after the keyboardist accidentally fell (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-The Early 70s lineup members having nicknames (Nobby for John D, Baptist for John G, Hyde for Dave and One Step for Mick) (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-The "Kinks Hijack Plane" headline. Aka the Kinks got drunk before a flight, Dave went feral and Nobby screaming out of frustration from missing a soccer match (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-"[Ray] Davies was a horrible geezer – a cunt" - Phil May (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Mick and Baptist going Cassandra truth-mode on Andy (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Ray knocking out Baptist during a fight before the encore (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Jim and Gordon contrasting each other (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-The "Psychatrist. Hours open: 10-12" door (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
-Pete jokingly telling John Entwistle to give his bass to "a real bass player" (Ray Davies: A Complicated Life).
Other post I said I would post months ago, but didn't until today. It's a bit dusty because the only modification I did was remove 1 moment because I genuinely didn't know how to feel about that one.
