Carols of Christmas: A Dickensian Tale, part 5: "Writing style"

I wanted to start each chapter with song quotes to foreshadow the chapter, and, possibly with the exception of chapter 10, I’ve tried to save the most dramatic parts of the chapters until the end. I tried not to use quotes, inspired by Meg Rosoff’s How I Live Now, but that didn’t really work out, starting with chapter 9.
