I stumbled on a Harry Potter book that was leaked early. Read the entire thing, several hundred pages.
The actual book came out and it was completely different. I had read a fan-fiction.
Could never get back into the series as I had a ton of false memories from that book.

Was it the “leaked” version of the Half Blood Prince? If so, a girl I was interested in sent that to me saying that her aunts friend worked for the publisher and I couldn’t show anyone or else they’d all go to jail. I was in high school so of course my mom was suspicious when I was spending hours reading something on the computer, so she made me tell her what it was, and I remember crying and begging her not to tell anyone that this girl I wanted to bang had sent it to me haha

Yes! That was it. Didn’t even get me laid.
Thanks for confirming that it wasn’t just a bad dream though! Do you still have your copy?

Just searched my email and found the 659 page pdf! Turns out it was actually the Deathly Hallows, it’s funny how things from 2007 are so hazy.

Wow I wish I had enough passion to write 659 pages of anything! I’m glad you’ve archived this important piece of history.

If you can please look if its archived already and if not upload it to archive.org
Assuming it has no copyright/licemse because it’s a fan fictiom it should be alright.
