Hi!
One way to note a book's content is to use language such as "contains strong
language" or "contains violence". I've done that when writing a synopsis for
books that consistently use the "f" word, for example.
NLS will designate a book in a similar fashion. Personally, I find that
helpful. Because a book contains some profanity won't make it adult--but if
the person submitting or proofreading it includes a comment as to "contains
some strong language" the reader can more easily choose whether or not to
read the book. *smile*
I also realize that some determinations are purely subjective.
Blessings.
