Query: "The Big Picture"

I found "Hula," by Lisa Shea, an extremely easy book to read; however I missed the "big picture." I felt that there was really no point to the story, other than outlining the life of two sisters during their intense, and somewhat chaotic childhood. One thing that I did like, was how Shea displays and deploys a very descriptive writing style that I had never seen before in a novel. The writing is similar to something like detailed poetry, that's to the point; however due to the depictive nature, some of this could be offensive or disturbing to the readers in certain scenes, such as the sexual ones and scenes with the girls' father. I can appreciate the book for the way and style it was written in. But overall, like I said, "Hula" was just to me, nothing more than an easy read that was definitely lacking substance.
