She stepped aside because there wasn’t enough time to finish reading before the deadline. BUT she said such nice things about the pages she read and adored the main characters. Honestly the kind of rejection that leaves you feeling good lol. I think she’d be a really great agent to work with! :D

Thank you so much for sending me your query for TITLE. I truly appreciate you trusting me with your story and for allowing me the chance to read your submission materials. I'm very sorry to say that your project is just not a fit for me at this time so I will have to pass.
Thank you again for considering me to represent you and please know how subjective the publishing industry is. Best of luck and keep going!
All the best,
