My Review:


After I read the first book in the Sunshine series by
Nikki Rae I was immediately hooked to her writing style. I loved how Nikki was
able to create these wonderful characters and how she was able to write these
unique stories. Unfortunately I still haven’t read the second and third book in
the Sunshine series but I did read Nikki’s Novella ‘The Donor’. Nikki Rae
writes these dark but beautiful stories and I was really excited about starting
her new book ‘Animal’.

In ‘Animal’ we meet Ava, a girl with anxieties, trying to
hide from her painful past. Although Ava’s life seems anything but happy, she’s
managing the best way she knows how. But one night Ava makes a huge mistake and
finds herself being taken by Michael, a very evil kind of man. From that night
forward Ava lives her life in terror. The one little light in her current life
is Evan, but even he is not safe from Michael.
What I liked the most about ‘Animal’ was definitely Ava’s
character. Even in the darkest times she is very strong and tries to find a way
out of her ‘hell’. I loved the way Nikki Rae made me love Ava more and more throughout
the book. This book is definitely dark, but it’s also very intriguing and keeps
you on the edge of your seat. The fact that this book also includes vampires,
made me like it even more. I love stories about vampires and this book is
definitely filled with very bad but also good vampires.
Somehow I really liked Evan from the very beginning. He
just has this thing about him that made me like him, even though I didn’t really
understand in the beginning if he was good or bad.
This book is a spin-off of the Sunshine series, but you
can definitely read this one without reading the series. Nikki Rae did another
great job with keeping her readers on the edge of their seat and if you haven’t
read any books by Nikki Rae before, this book will definitely make you want to
read more written by her.
