i know the anime is kinda scatters though out some of the novels what chapters were covered so i dont repeat things i already know
"among monsters and humans, there are only two types.
Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice
“Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty.” David Hume
“Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus

The anime covers all of the first novel, although the English version kind of ordered the chapters since the original Japanese version was told non-linearly. I don't think the portion of Episode 3, Land of Sadness, was from the novel. The original chapter told the whole story all at once, rather than being disconnected and intertwined stories. I also can't find the prologue and intermissions from Episode 11, nor the parts about the bodyguard and the wiseman.

Episode 0: The Tower Country - Volume 4, chapter 11
Episode 1a: In the Middle of the Desert: Vol.2, Prologue and Epilogue
Episode 1b: Land of Visible Pain - Vol.1, ch.1
Episode 2: A Tale of Feeding Off Others - V.2, ch.1
Episode 3a: Land of Prophecies - Vol.5, ch.7
Episode 3b: Tradition - Vol. 4, ch. 4
Episode 4: Land of Adults - Vol.1, ch.5
Episode 5a: Three Men Along the Rails - Vol.1, ch.3
Episode 5b: A Land Without the Need for Work - Vol. 4, ch. 5
Episode 5b: Land of Majority Rule - Vol.1, ch.2
Episode 6-7: Colosseum - Vol.1, ch.4
Episode 8: Land of Wizards - Vol.2, ch.3
Episode 9a: Tale of a Tank - Vol.6, Frontpiece 3
Episode 9b: Land of Books - Vol.2, ch.7
Episode 10: A Tale of Mechanical Dolls - Vol.3, ch.4
Episode 11: Her Journey - Vol. 5, ch. 1 and 2
Episode 12: A Peaceful Land - Vol.1, ch. 6
Episode 13: A Kind Land - Vol. 2, ch. 8

Special: Life Goes On - Vol. 7, Prologue and Epilogue
Movie: Land of Illness - Vol.5, ch. 10



In summary,
- All of Volume 1
- Volume 2, Prologue/Epilogue and Chapters: 1, 3, 7, 8
- Volume 3, Chapter 4
- Volume 4, Chapters: 4, 5, 11
- Volume 5, Chapters: 1, 2, 7, 10
- Volume 6, Frontpiece 3
- Volume 7, Prologue and Epilogue

It's...very scattered, as you said.

I agree with the above post, but I would also like to add the following:

episode 4 prologue and epilogue : "In the Middle of a Crimson Sea" - volume 4 prologue
episode 11's "true blue sky" was taken from parts of "A Land Not Permitting Discrimination" - volume 3 ch. 5
episode 12 prologue : "In the Middle of the Forest" - volume 1 prologue

Volume 2's prologue was not shown in episode 1, but episode 13 (this story book ends the anime)
Also for episode 11, Her Journey was not volume 5 ch. 1-2, but volume 6 ch. 1-2.
