unfinishable

Impossible to finish

Unfinishable describes something that cannot be completed or brought to an end.

A task may be unfinishable because it's infinite in scope, because circumstances prevent completion, or because the goal keeps receding: The to-do list felt unfinishable.

An unfinishable book defeats every attempt to read it through.
