what shall i do?
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Your question is not clear. It appears you were reading a book about kufr and shirk, and you fear reading such contents lead to kufr.
If our understanding of your query is correct, then the mere reading of kufr and shirk does not constitute kufr and shirk.[1]
And Allah Taala Knows Best

وَبِإِثْبَاتِ الْمَكَانِ لِلَّهِ تَعَالَى فَإِنْ قَالَ اللَّهُ فِي السَّمَاءِ فَإِنْ قَصَدَ حِكَايَةَ مَا جَاءَ فِي ظَاهِرِ الْأَخْبَارِ لَا يَكْفُرُ
(الدر المختار وحاشية ابن عابدين، ج ٣، ص ٧١٩)
وفي أواخر جامع الفصولين: قال: الله تعالى في السماء عالم لو أراد به المكان كفر لا لو أراد به حكاية عما جاء في ظاهر الأخبار
