Jojo Moyes's next novel will also become a movie

Another Jojo Moyes novel will be hitting the big screen in a deal struck before the book has even hit shelves, reports the Bookseller.

The Giver of Stars, about a group of young women who empower a remote mountain community through a traveling library during the Great Depression, will be published October 8.

Moyes will serve as executive producer for the film; other key figures include Ol Parker (director of Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again), Alison Owen (producer of Saving Mr. Banks), and Debra Hayward (producer of Cats).

The 2016 movie adaptation of her novel Me Before You was a smash hit, as were all three books in that trilogy.
