Kelly
Alison is a member of Rent Boy’s friend group, although she remains antagonistic toward Rent Boy himself most of the time. She is particularly good friends with Kelly. She has sex with Sick Boy and Spud, although like Rent Boy, she has conflicted feelings about her friends and sometimes seems to dislike them. Like Kelly, Alison helps balance the male-dominated perspective of the book.
