Thank you so much for the opportunity to consider XXX. While there were elements of your pitch that I enjoyed, in the end, I do not have the enthusiasm for this project to be the right person to champion it forward. Please keep in mind that publishing is highly subjective, so what doesn't work for me will work for someone else. Keep querying and writing, and I believe you will find every success in your publishing journey.
With best wishes,

Rejection: Due to 91k being too high a word count for YA Fantasy. I hadn’t received that feedback before but good to know for anyone looking for query that for YA Fantasy she’s looking for a range of 55k to 80k
