They are hard to find, the only one I think I read this year was
A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking by T. Kingfisher (Ursula Vernon).

It was good and is not in a series, at least yet. There've been a couple "recently" that started as stand-alone books and are now series.
The Golem and the Jinni is the one I can remember off the top of my head.
