Emotionally Bankrupt

a collection of poetry

A curation of suppressed thoughts and wishful thinking around work, love, and disordered eating.

What readers are saying:

  • "The author truly gives readers a magnifying glass-like look into the world of today's youth. It will make you laugh, it will have you relating. Couldn't put it down I related so much to be honest. Can't wait for more from this talent!"

    - Amanda J

  • "Beautifully written, relatable, clever, funny. Each section spoke to me differently and authentically. Great read!"

    -Abby

  • "This book of poetry fills such a needed space about the issues facing millennials today. The poems about working a 9-5 job, especially, are so original and honest. Everyone will relate to poems like "Take a Deep Breath" and short poems such as "confession" are minimal, but poweful. Similar to millennial poets such as Rupi Kaur before her, Jenny Martin takes the painful aspects of life and makes them beautiful."

    -Erin M

  • "Witty, relatable and very authentic. I couldn't put this book down! There is something for everyone here – thank you Jenny for this amazing read. Can't wait for more!"

    -Traci

  • "Emotionally Bankrupt targets those who struggle with the internal battle of being what society deams "successful" in this modern world at whatever cost to the individual vs living your truth and focusing on strengthening your mental health. Emotionally Bankrupt is relatable to all millennials and everyone who has ever felt like they are just another cog in a machine while asking themselves is this really it or is there more to this life?"
