18d. Read story about three times (8) I have ----R-T-

Hi leapy
This one wasn't fun, and I've several unparsed. Fifteensquared blog hasn't appeared yet, either
I went for LITERATE for that one. LIE is often "story", but I don't see the rest.

Hi Chris I am really struggling with this one too, got most done will try Literate and see what I come up with!

It looks like the three times are T ERA T inside LIE for story as you said, with the whole thing meaning read as in well-read.

Hi ChrisE
