In the 3rd book the main character has something called 'super panic mode' (or something similar) and he describes it like having a panic attack, but never in detail. Also in the 3rd book, he breaks down in the bathroom into what seems like an anxiety attack.
There is a racist character in the 2nd book, he is awful to Rosa who is a brown, Latina woman and another gas station employee who I believe is also Latino and brown.
Also in the 3rd book, the main character and a black cop are cussed out for holding hands (not romantically), cause the racist thought they were an interracial couple
