I had had my library organized by the Library of Congress system, which unlike Dewey does not exempt works of fiction. It was gradually degrading over the years as I neglected to catalog new acquisitions. Then we moved, and just shoved the books onto shelves as we took them out of the boxes, the state of disarray in which they remain.
Where I've seen, fiction is filed under F and then author's last name. There is some fiction among the numbered areas, but it's usually things like poetry, folk tales, fairy tales, religion stuff, etc.
But...since this is a person's library in their house, I'm not sure that's necessarily a good idea unless all books are entered into a database and visitors can search it. Heh.

Still. This is going to be a pain to maintain if I use any kind of system like that.
