It's not generally hard to tell the difference. Novel-length fanfic tends to be (sigh) better written and more internally consistent than Rowling's later books. (At least, the stuff that anyone would bother putting into a PDF and sharing is.) And a lot of it is either heavy romance or slash... and we're pretty sure that, whatever Rowling might write in the future, it doesn't involve Harry & Draco making out in the Astronomy Tower.

Although, i might be tempted to read that version...
