Jacinta decides she needs to go for a walk. She ends up in a different place from where she started, but that is the outcome of most walks. This story is more about the journey than the destination.

Jacinta is a teenager with an outlook forged by difficult circumstances: alcohol, drugs, loss, deprivation, mental health issues. Can she walk away from that life and find a better place?

Jacinta takes a walk and captures your heart

Reviewed it on January 28, 2026

BarBar has a gift in creating characters that tug at your heart. Jacinta has experienced trauma, slowly revealed. And we are along her walk as she copes and recovers, somewhat. She affects several others, whom we also care about, especially Tabitha. Highly recommended.
And if you have not read the Bec stories, also by BarBar, look them up.
