Annabel Monaghan’s fifth novel, “Dolly All the Time,” will be adapted into a movie, the former Rye resident announced Thursday on social media.

A reported bidding war for the movie rights to the best-selling book came to an end this week, with Sony’s 3000 Pictures landing the opportunity to make the rom-com. The production company is Temple Hill, which teamed up with 3000 Pictures to adapt several popular books into movies, including “The Fault in Our Stars,” “The Hate U Give,” and the Emmy-nominated “People We Meet on Vacation.”

“I am so excited about this, and the enthusiasm coming from Temple Hill and Sony is contagious,” Monaghan told The Record on Friday. “My fingers are crossed that it all pans out; at this stage, a million things can still go wrong.”
