There is almost no difference
the standard Arabic sentence would be this one الكتاب لي
but if we need to emphasize that "I" am the owner not anyone else we can prioritize the predicate

هذا الكتاب لي
This book is mine
هذا البيت لك
This house is yours
لمن هذا الكتاب ؟ =Whose book is this?
لي
لي here for answer question

الكتاب لي the book belongs to me (it is mine) (mostly a declaration and informing)
لي الكتاب i have the book (but i think better to say لي كتاب) and used for replying a related question.
i might be wrong anymore. native speakers can explain better.
