We’ve announced this before, but just in case someone missed it. When Avon pushed our books back, we thought they would redesign the cover for BFM rerelease. They didn’t. They just added flaming font. Because of this and other factors, like being short on time, the “rerelease” will not contain any new material. Don’t buy
