I'm reading my query for BRIGHTLY BURNING, which had about a 70% request rate and landed me my agent Elana Roth Parker. This is just my personal example of how to write a good query.
In this case, I opened with personalization and the book information upfront, but you can also start with your book information (which is actually my recommendation), putting the book info before your bio. You can find examples of this in the below query format examples link!
