@D_Writes28 Agents pass quickly for a lot of reasons. Your book (genre) might not fit their list and is something they're not looking for. The query itself might not have been engaging. A good agent, with a full list knows within the opening paragraphs whether they want to see more or not. Better to get a fast rejection so you can move on, than wait endlessly. I hope your book lands!

Passed so quickly after I sent the query (within hours) I sincerely doubt she read my query. She seems very busy.

Do you think it's alright to nudge Jessica after the 12 week mark (if she has our manuscript)? She said 10-12 weeks is her goal for requested fulls and that she's working as fast as possible, but I don't want to be annoying ahah!

Her rejection letter is the same is copy and pasted to multiple people so don’t feel dissuaded or discouraged if you get denied. She most likely didn’t read your proposal out of the volume she says she receives..
“Thank you so much for querying BookEnds and for giving me the opportunity to review x. I did read your letter and am going to pass on looking at further material.
I'm sorry I don't have better news. I am lucky to have a full and active client list and for that reason, I've become very particular about taking on new clients. This is by no means a criticism of your work. It's quite possible you'll find someone else who feels differently. I encourage you to keep querying and even consider other BookEnds agents for your work.”
