It does not mean the novel wasn't good. It could mean any number of things, from not the right time to just didn't hit someone the right way.
If you want a prime example, babe, I'll send you Breathe, to read, I swear. Or Thirteen. Anything of mine.
You keep working. You keep trying. You put this one away and maybe, in a few months, take another look at it. Maybe you'll want to change it, or not. That's your call. In the meantime, you keep working because if there's anything I know, it's that you're a writer.
