Dear ___,
Thank you for sending me the manuscript for [TITLE] and for trusting me with your work!
I really enjoyed your pitch and sample and think your work has so much to offer. Unfortunately, I didn't fall in love with the manuscript the way I had hoped to, and so I must pass.
I'm sorry to not have better news. This is a very subjective industry, and I hope another agent will feel differently! I will be rooting for you and your work and wish you the best of luck with your other queries.
Sincerely,
Aashna Avachat
