Are You as Cool and Adventurous in Your Reading as Markd9528 Is?

I didn't even realise I was a cool-kid AND enjoyed reading experimental works until I scored in the top 7-8% of the following two challenges. What's your cool-experimental quotient (CEQ) ?
01-22: appear in "The Cool-Kid Reading List"
23-64: appear in "The Best Experimental Books Ever" (admittedly a Goodreads users list)
The following appear on both lists:
If on a Winter's Night a Traveler
The Master and Margarita
On the Road
The Picture of Dorian Gray
A Visit From the Goon Squad
