"Thank you for your query. While I do think there is space for a book like this in the marketplace, the project unfortunately isn't a fit for me at this time, and so I will have to pass. I'm sorry not to have better news. Thank you for considering me and best of luck with your work."

"Thank you for your query. While you have an intriguing premise, I unfortunately wasn't as drawn in by the opening pages as I'd need to be in order to request the full manuscript, and so I will have to pass. I'm sorry to not have better news. Thank you for considering me and best of luck with your work."
While I'm a little sad about the news, this is some feedback I can use to help my next manuscript draft.
