Us v. we
Is "Girls like Us" correct usage? It's a title of a book (a very good one) and was wondering because a friend said should be "Girls like We." We sounds wrong, though I can understand "girls like we are."

I'd defend your book title as "us" being object of the preposition "like." Would you say, "You shouldn't be going out with someone like I !" ?
If you wish to use the subjective case "we," choose a subjective form - "Girls such as we."
