This is my first Alli Sinclair novel and it won't be my last.

Burning Fields is a look back on post WW2 Australia -and in many ways, not a lot has changed in the past 70 years.

Rosie is one fierce woman. Not something that was appreciated back in the 1940s. She wants to help on her family property, however her father - who 90% of the time I got frustrated and mad at, just like Rosie - but misogyny runs rampant through family, community, country.

Oh, and if anyone ever says Australia is not racist, well, that is a lie! Though this is set post war and the Italians bear the brunt of it, there are echos of this in current society, and the human race really hasn't changed that much at all.

I adored Tomas, and his and Rosie's attraction leaps off the page, and as a reader you can't help but fall for the as they fall for each other.

This story shows the winds of change that started to happen after WW2, when women who had been independent while their men were away, and refused to be pushed back into the kitchen - go women!

I will be going back and reading more of Ms Sinclair's works in the future
