No, it's not normal. Bone healing is a very variable thing, but clavicle fractures usually heal quickly, especially when surgery was not involved. What have your doctors said?
Of course, if you have a condition which affects bone density and bone minerals, that could just be a factor in slowing bone healing, but get good information from your doctors now. If the break is still obvious by 6 months, that would almost certainly indicate nonunion, which is permanent failure of bone healing. Even at 3 months, it's becoming a possibility.
