Summer reading at the library is one of my favorite traditions. Give me a sunny day, a stack of books and nowhere else to be. BPL is rewarding our reading habits with a FREE tote bag this year. It’s like a prize for always bringing your books! Swing by your local branch and get one before they're gone.

Right up there with free totes are free tickets, and we're handing those out too. Enter to win tickets to see Baby Keem on Sunday.

BOSTON’S OWN LAURENCE LOUIE IS ONE WIN AWAY FROM TOP CHEF TITLE

We found a way to be nosy and call it networking. The Local's List is our weekly excuse to chat with cool people doing cool things around Boston. Few people are having a bigger moment right now than Boston’s own Laurence Louie. The co-owner of Rubato is one of the final three chefs standing in this season of Top Chef. Ahead of Monday’s finale, we caught up with Chef Louie to talk about competing on a national stage and his honest take on Boston's dining scene.
