About Me

Hi and welcome to Passages to the Past: The Place to be for Historical Fiction!

My name is Amy and I live in a suburb of Atlanta, GA with my wonderful husband of 17 years. We have one daughter and two crazy boys. I’ve been a reader since a very early age and I can’t remember a time that I’ve not had a book in my hand. 

I came to love the historical fiction genre after picking up The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory and shortly after that Mary, Queen of Scots and the Isles by Margaret George and I've been obsessed ever since! Once I found the genre I began searching the internet in earnest to find more HF book recommendations and soon found myself immersed in the world of book blogs. After lurking for a while I then decided to try my hand at a book review blog of my own….and VOILA Passages to the Past was born!

Passages to the Past was founded in June 2008 and now has over 1,200 followers! A huge thanks to all of my fabulous followers and blogging friends I have met along the way.
