I've only read And Then There Were None, which was previously titled "Ten Little Indians" (glad for the name change), which also had some anti-Semitic things thrown around as well as some good ol fashioned sexism. I was definitely uncomfortable reading it, but I just reminded myself the book was published in 1939. That doesn't make it ok, but it's clearly a product of its time. I just take a moment to roll my eyes and move on. If it were published more recently, I wouldn't bother with it, but it's an old book and society has thankfully gotten better about that stuff
