I'll be starting M1 soon, and some people have recommended that I start looking at FA periodically throughout the year. However, the only available version is the 2013 First Aid, and 2014 comes out around Christmas? Should I just wait to pick that one up, or can I go with the 2013, and start looking at it now?

If you've got a surplus of $, grab one. Otherwise, wait. People are always selling their FA dirt cheap after their step or just giving them away. If your school has a FB marketplace, ask away. Ask your seniors.
 
Just echoing what was said. Get a cheap copy and look through it occasionally especially before tests to see if you can pick up a few high yield facts. However, remember it is a review book and must be treated as such.
