I had chosen to review The Fox by N. M. J. Butler in the mobi format but after downloading the book, the mobi file shows on my Android mobile phone as a BIN file, which can't be read by android devices. I have managed to extract the file using extensions in my laptop which was successful, but I had to convert the book to PDF format in the process. My question is, should I review the PDF format of the book or I should quit the book all together?

You can't download the pdf on kindle. You need to download and save the book on your PC, convert it to MOBI, and then move it to the Kindle App on your device.

If it's in a .pdf file and you don't want or able to convert it, try downloading and using the NOOK app from Barnes and Noble; it will use .pdf files.
