I jump far ahead in the list sometimes because my library (which is part of a consortium) buys Advantage licenses of some of the most popular books. So I'll see that I'm 21st on the waiting list but as soon as the Advantage license gets freed up I'll get that one.
Doesn't sound like that's happening with the OP though. If he's first, then he should get the book at the end of the maximum check-out window one way or another.
