Here's what I did. In paragraph 3 (after why querying this agent & brief synopsis), I included what I think of as "other details"--

The novel, which is set in a smaller city with a high unemployment rate, utilizes the third person narratives of all three of the primary protagonists (Aislinn, Keenan, and Donia). I believe it would appeal to older teen readers of such novels as {omitted} . . . While it does contain some darker elements (sexual assault, unintentional intoxication, violence, and mild references to drug use and drinking), they are not gratuitous.

Incidentally, 2 of the 3 novelists I mentioned have read & said positive things about the text. :) I don't think it's essential, but there's something to be said for showing that you're thinking big picture.

I'll post your question over at FFF too.
