Basically they got the same story (there are only timeline changes in the anime and the last few episodes are diffrent from the manga). The Plot is still the same, but I would recommend you to read the manga from the start. It's better to read the full thing than only a bit and it's worth it. I know because I wanted to do the same. In the end I decided to read it from the start and I think it was a good decision.

I don't know if I understood you right, but you want to read the manga because you want to know the how the plot will continue? But you aren't patient enough to wait a week for a next episode of Root A (Season 2)? Because Root A has a diffrent plot, it's an alternative story and doesn't really follow the manga timeline. There are still a few scenes that are very similar, but if you want to know how it'll end it won't make much sense. It'll probably have another ending. Still I really recommend the manga, it got a pretty good story development and at the moment I definitly like the manga plot more than the alternative story of Root A.
