If your feeling brave, and patient, I would suggest anything by Joe Satriani or another guitarist like him.
A little list of a few songs I’ve been trying to learn:
Cliffs of Dover-Eric Johnson, Very Hard
Godfather Theme-Slash, Pretty hard
The solos in a few queen songs are fun, and challenging, but really, it’s all what you feel you would like to play. Find a few bands that you like and just start learning there songs. Good luck.
Oh, and by the way, congrats. I’ve been playing for almost a year and a half and I can barely barre a chord. I don’t know why, I can play lots of other stuff, just can’t barre…

A good song to practice single note fingering is Stairway to Heaven (Led Zeppelin) and a good song for fingering with bar chords is Hotel California (The Eagles).
