I've had a few personal rejections with feedback lately. It's 1 part encouraging, 1 part confusing. Especially when the feedback isn't exactly clear.
One in particular said a lot of good things followed by: Might there be a way to reframe the stress of being a high school outcast that could make the novel stand out more?
Does that mean she thinks the "high school outcast" bit isn't original? Or that the way it's presented isn't good enough? Or... Oh, I don't know.
What do you do when you don't really know what feedback means?
