Petty Woes/Please Help?

ladyspriteI love my e-reader. And I love the Boston Public Library. In particular, I love that I can just automatically download books from the latter to the former.
Except sometimes it works out that all of the books I've put on hold show up at once, and then time crunch is such that I can't read them all at once. End result? I was about 100 pages from the end of 'A Clash Of Kings' before Cruel Fate declared that the lending period was over and auto-deleted it from my Nook.
I could just buy it.... but paying for the last 100 pages just irks me. I could take it out of the library again... but there are already another 20+ people on the waitlist; it'd take a month or more. And that's for both the paper and the digital copies, so just physically walking to the library and borrowing it won't work.
So I'm asking here - does anybody local have a copy they can lend me? If not, I'll just bite the bullet and buy it, but if you do I'd be grateful as anything....
