Received a nice rejection email from Andrea. She didn't connect with the book's pacing and wasn't sure how to move forward in being a good fit together, but she made nice comments about the book in general. Wonderful agent, would query her again.

Kind. Loved the concept and the characters. But didn't connect with it.

It wasn't clear on her site, but she doesn't do adult fantasy. Her rejection letter was very nice though.
"Thank you so much for reaching out. I appreciate that you thought of me for <MANUSCRIPT TITLE>, but I’m afraid that I really don’t tend to handle fantasy in the adult space and don’t feel like quite the right fit for this project. I hope you find the perfect match soon, and wish you all the very best with your next steps."

Same day: kind response thanking me for nudging and saying she hoped to get to it within the week.
5/3/20: Very thoughtful rejection on full (didn't have the right editorial vision) and gave me the name of another agent at Writers House I should try.
Incredibly sweet and polite, EXTREMELY quick reply times... I highly recommend querying her and I will gladly query her again if this project doesn't land me an agent.

Very polite/kind form. Would query her in the future if this project didn't pan out.

Polite Nudge: 5/6/20
She responded very quickly. Not the right fit for her, but she has shared it with someone else in the agency.
ER: 4/20/20 ...Like less than an hour later!
To-the-point rejection. She did give me two other names of agents at Writers House I could try, though! (one of whom had already rejected the MS)
