The Education of Nevada Duncan is a 2016 American-Canadian coming-of-age story by Carl Weber that follows the life of Nevada Duncan, a thirteen year old girl growing up in Las Vegas, Nevada. The novel switches between the present day and recollections of her past as she tells her life's story to an interviewer. The Education of Nevada Duncan is narrated by twelve narrators, who respond to different questions throughout the interview.

The Education of Nevada Duncan is a story about a man who, after some rough patches in his life, decides to make a change. He meets Claire and decides to help her with her quest for an education. The problem is that Nevada doesn't have the money needed to support her in this endeavor. So he starts working at the company to get the money he needs while still helping Claire with his time.

Nevada Duncan is a high school student in the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina. He is a teenage boy, trying to figure out his place in the world. He struggles with whether to go on to college or stay in the mountains and help his struggling family farm. Nevada has always known that he was adopted, but that doesn't stop him from dreaming big about what he wants for himself future.

Nevada Duncan is a young woman who moved to the Colorado mountains to serve as a horse wrangler. She has all the skills needed to take care of horses but no money, and she's now in need of a job. When she gets a call from her father, who is on his deathbed, he tells her about an opportunity for her in California. Nevada decides to take the risk and leaves everything behind - including her horse, Pepper.

There are a lot of books worth reading and this is one of them. The Education of Nevada Duncan is narrated by five different readers with different accents. Ten-year-old Nevada Duncan, whose father has been detained in a refugee camp, is shipped off to live with his Aunt Cecelia who is a single mom of three boys in Wichita Falls, Texas. At first he struggles to fit in, but soon learns that all the other kids are just as desperate for love and acceptance as he is.

I would highly recommend this story to readers who enjoy historical fiction. I think the format of the audiobook makes it easier for listeners to stay interested in the story because listeners can jump around and still follow along with what is happening. While I don't know much about the history of Nevada's cattle industry, the author does a great job of explaining both Nevada's past and present through her experiences growing up on her ranch.
