The Michelin guide states: "Although one of the many nationally known authors living in Litchfield Hills-which have included Philip Roth and Arthur Miller-might be on hand for a signing, the real draw at this welcoming bookstore is the vast selection of current books, plus the personal service. People come from all over the state to browse the well-stocked sections on sports, photography, nature, cooking, music, biography, history, reference, fiction, poetry and drama. There is also an attention-grabbing children's corner as well as a great selection of stationery and greeting cards."

Connecticut An Explorer's Guide notes about The Hickory Stick Bookshop "......an attractive full-service bookstore with an unusually large section devoted exclusively to children's books. At Hickory Stick's frequent book signings, you can meet the famous authors who labor over hot computers in their Litchfield Hills farmhouses."
