Normal Functioning Adult
Second Edition
By Samantha L. Valentine
The only way to find herself is to lose herself
A year ago, Amy Campbell’s life was perfect. She had a beautiful wife, her career was on an upward trajectory, and her friendship circle was uncomplicated. Now she’s a thirty-five-year-old widow who relies on wine and a dysfunctional situationship to cope.
Aware her life is hanging together by a thread, Amy reluctantly returns to therapy. As she works through her grief and opens up to others in her group therapy program, she forms an unexpected bond that gives her life renewed purpose. But as she strives to become a normal functioning adult again, strains on her new relationship, conflict with her best friend, and the pressures of everyday life throw her into turmoil.
The more Amy tries to redefine herself, the more her old self surfaces until the two collide and she’s forced to confront her reality and make a decision about her future.
Can Amy find the courage to say goodbye to her late wife and allow herself to love again? Or is the risk too great?
Normal Functioning Adult is a story of grief, friendship and love told with heart and humour.
