I don't know how clear that title was. Sorry.
If you receive several interested agents based on your query, followed by one rejection of requested material after the other, does this mean there really might be something wrong with the book? Or is agenting really that subjective? And eventually an agent will be right to represent your work?
In the past couple weeks, I've been asked for 5 partials and 3 fulls. They haven't ALL been rejected yet, but the agents who've replied had various reasons for passing (though liked the concept, blah, blah, blah).
Do books ever get mucho rejecto but still find a way to one agent's heart? I feel like such a jerk asking this since it probably happens all the time, but it's easy to feel like you're doing something wrong at this stage.
Thanks
