Very kind rejection stating that she loved the premise but would struggle to place it as YA and thinks it might be a better fit for the adult market. Threw me for a loop a little, but at the same time very encouraging and has given me a lot to think about.

I appreciate that she took her time to consider my story, possibly from multiple perspectives.

@cchristie Thanks for the suggestion! :-)
