I'm also leaning towards it being a form rejection b/c The Seymour Agency (they requested the first 50 pages) said the same thing last week. She wrote a handwritten note on my query which said "Despite the good things in this, must pass."
So there's that word again - "Good." Do they just say that to everyone they reject after reading some or all of the story? Makes me wonder.
