Barack Obama signed book -- Real or Fake?

Found this at my local bookstore, and it's a signed copy of "The Audacity of Hope." Thoughts on the authenticity of the signature? Thanks!

Honestly one looks like it was signed ar an angle. Only thing that bothers me is there might be a disconnect on the bottom loop of the B. But still I have to lean towards good. Best way to tell is pressure on the back of the page and if there is any stops present. No signature is going to be exactly the same. I have three of these and there are minor differences. But they don’t look like their in a different hand. But as I said. Best way for me to tell is how hard/light the pen marks are on the back of the page.
