Synopsis

The Difference Between You and Me is Sex and the City meets The Player. When two vastly different women-one a ruthless go-getter, the other an unambitious script reader-find their lives intertwined, a startling revelation turns their mutual loathing to grudging respect, then real friendship as they discover the boundless rewards of human connection. With her sly and generous wit, Kathleen DeMarco has written a modern-day comedy of manners, an insider's take on Hollywood protocol and prestige.

From Booklist

DeMarco's follow-up to The Cranberry Queen (2001) is a frothy, fun look at the cut-throat world of Hollywood and what it takes to survive and thrive there. Josie O'Leary is a ruthless go-getter on her way up the ladder to becoming a producer. When she gets her hands on a golden script, she is deterred neither by being fired by the company she works for nor by her husband's dual announcements that he has cancer and he is leaving her. On the other side of the country, Carla Trousse's New York apartment literally caves in on her. At the behest of her aunt Paulette, she travels to L.A and is surprised by how much she likes it. Carla is hired at a production company by her old assistant, and has a run-in with Josie, whom she deems the worst person she has met in L.A. Unbeknownst to either woman, Carla's aunt Paulette is going to drop a bombshell that will throw them together and change both of their lives. DeMarco's second novel is perfect summer fare.
