What if they lein too much?

Hi,

If the baal keriah (person reading from the Torah) reads all the way to the end for the second reading on a Monday, Thursday or Shabbat afternoon, then they should read further for the third reading, and not repeat. As a general rule, we prefer not to repeat. However, if this is a reading mandated by the calendar, such as for Rosh Chodesh, then one would repeat that which has already been read, since the day requires that reading, specifically.

(Rivivot Ephraim 1:104:3)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
