I am glad that the newer editions have been edited to change the racist title and poem. This doesn't change the overall plot and makes the book accessible to all.
Still, fair warning: all of the characters are overtly racist, sexist, and/or anti-Semitic. But they are meant to be assholes.

As I was re-reading this book, I realized how and why I enjoyed it the first time I read it, and is enjoyed by many. Agatha Christie is crafty with her words and cunning in creating sneaky characters. This time around, I was more focused on who's next as I flip back to that first page with the rhyme.
With the soldiers going missing or getting broken as each person is killed off, I was imagining it like a spy movie of sorts, the culprit hiding in the walls and behind hidden doors throughout the house xD
