The first chapter is a miniature model of the whole book. It tells readers what to expect and gets them interested enough to find out for themselves.
When I read those first 10 pages, I look for:
Voice, mood, and tone
Plot
Emotional Connection
Mystery
Orientation
Which character do you start with?

When you write a book, it’s a contract between a writer and reader. Always consider whether you’ll have a harmful impact upon your reader through outdated stereotypes or tropes, or unintentional mischaracterizations.
Do your due diligence—research (!!) and get a good (human!) sensitivity reader.

DVpit #querying Tip: As you scroll the feed make note of which agents like pitches in similar categories/genres as yours & add them to your general querying list! The feed is so busy, they might've missed yours, but if they're liking similar stories that means it's something they want in their inbox
