I just read Sarah Monette's mostly-fantasy short story collection Somewhere Beneath Those Waves, and adored it. Stylistically I thought it was pretty broad, from some pieces that jump around in vignettes in time to some straightforward urban fantasy. A lot of the stories feel like modern ghost stories.
Sarah Monette is also the author, as Katherine Addison, of The Goblin Emperor, nominated for the Hugo and Nebula and my favorite book of this year's reading so far. Go read that too if you somehow haven't encountered it already.
