For instance, is your MC into dance? is that why she thinks she can use a dancing competition to sneak into this mansion? <br />With YA with super natural elements, you need to show--in your query--how your novel is different from other novels with super natural elements (I think the dance stuff can help). <br /><br />Also, this query has taken the novel and boiled it down, so I recommend adding some voice back into it. It's important to show your voice in your query as well as your book. On the plus side, you've stripped away so much of the novel at this point, that you have a bit of room to work with, so you have room to add back in. <br /><br />Good job, and your story sounds interesting.
