The answer is 27.
No tricks in this one — no hidden halves, no hearts tucked in the corners. Just count them the slow way, row by row from the top:
Row 1: 4 hearts; Row 2: 7 hearts; Row 3: 5 hearts; Row 4: 7 hearts; Row 5: 4 hearts.
4 + 7 + 5 + 7 + 4 = 27 hearts.
The rows are where people slip: rows 2 and 4 are the full ones, and the shorter top and bottom rows make your brain want to round the middle ones down. If you landed on 26 or 28, you were one row’s slip away. Drop your number in the comments — and tag the friend who swore it was 25 so she can count again, slowly. ❤️
