kanji KUN yomi singletons versus ON DOKU in Henshall book

I am distracted just now looking at kanji KUN yomi singletons versus ON DOKU in the old Henshall book.

By "singleton" I mean a reading that is unique for that book. In the case of KUN yomi, there are a great many in Henshall.

There are some errors and some oddities. The errors in the index are annoying!

   文読む月日  ふみ よむ つき ひ  days of reading

How many days will you devote to reading kanji before we get to the love letter, こいぶみ ?
