But if he knew she wrote a book on said topic, which was the topic of the conversation, why did he automatically assume that the book he'd heard about was by someone else? Why did he not consider it was her book?

If you met an author who wrote a book, what are the odds that the book you're thinking of is the same book said author wrote? There are many books out there.

"OMG I loved ___, best book ever on the subject, did you write it???"

"....no."

Is just as bad.

I'd be most likely to ask "What was your book?" both out of curiosity and and out of not wanting to embarass myself. I assume most people would.

Yeah, that was what I meant. It was a book on a research topic that isn't the most common in the world, so the question "Oh, was your book ___?" doesn't seem that out there.
