"Cheeky...poignant...Zimmerman’s good humor makes this slice of modern life a charmer.” ―Publishers Weekly

“Zach Zimmerman is one of the funniest, most nimble young comics working today….Insightful, wise, and laugh-out-loud hilarious, Is It Hot In Here has no right being as good as it is. I loved this book.” ― R. Eric Thomas

“Funny, provocative, touching, honest, and original. Zach writes as easily about the Olive Garden extended menu as he does about heartbreak and religion. I felt so seen and I laughed so hard.” ― Blythe Roberson

“I simply must share that it IS hot in here baby!!! Zach speaks to the soul like a friend’s shaky whisper in the middle of mass― maybe you’re not supposed to laugh, but that just makes it funnier.” ―Cat Cohen

“Zach Zimmerman has written a warmly engaging memoir in the guise of stand-up comedy: a bittersweet sort of humor, droll and self-aware, painfully yet funnily candid, a voice of disarming frankness and intimacy.” ― Joyce Carol Oates

“A charming, funny, resoundingly queer collection of bite-sized stories that go down smooth. It’s a perfect summer read. You will fall in love with Zach.” ― Guy Branum

"Zach's book is just like Zach: sharp, funny, generous, surprisingly insightful (no offense), and I kind of have a crush on it.” ― Karen Chee

“A deeply satisfying blend of humor and heart. The pitch-perfect satire pieces are an ideal companion to the essays. This is the type of book you'll want to share with all your friends." ―Ginny Hogan
