I have no way of getting the novel, I've never read it, so it was reading the manga or nothing, and I REALLY wanted to know what the deal it was with BR, after hearing so many people talking about it.

I've just read the manga and watched the movie, but I'm trying to find the book. Though I was so depressed after reading the manga I'm afraid I'll need therapy after reading the novel, is it violent?, I'd ask you if it's as violent as the manga, but since you haven't read it.

I can't draw any comparisons, but I can say that it's still v. violent, v. M-rated? XD;

But of course, it's descriptions instead of images -- which can be better or worse, I guess, depending on how vivid an imagination you have.

Too vivid an imagination I'm afraid, I absorb books so well that if I read something before going to bed I dream with it, thought me not to read horror before bedtime.

But I have to read this, I loved the manga and the movie so much, BR is one of the best things I've seen/read in such a long time.

If you ever feel up to it, I'd suggest trying the book. A lot of the main themes of the manga are absent in the movie and manga.

And, personally, while the book is gory, I'd say the manga is much much worse in that sense.

The novel is not nearly as violent as the manga.
